THE BODY IN THE LIBRARY

Continuing my mini pic spams of Jack's many roles, may I present The Body in the Library.
Many thanks to Atlantis2_04 for these lovely screen caps. Jack played a cop that was outwitted by Miss Marple at every turn.

That role reminded me of my favorite movies from childhood, old Finnish detective movies written by Mika Waltari.
A youngish (booksmart) cop that is always outwitted by his older comrade.
Not too many pictures online, here's the two of them.

It must be a genre tradition, but it works :)

Yeah, I think the bumbling policeman has been used in alot of stories.
