What to watch: Evensong' is a classic Brit murder mystery
"A murder of a parishioner with a checkered past throws the cloistered 1980s community of Champton, near London, into an absolute tizzy, partly because the corpse was found in the church. But was Anthony Bowness the intended victim or was the target supposed to be Canon Daniel Clement (Matthew Lewis), who is receiving hate mail for ministering and lending support to AIDS patients?"
"John Candy: I Like Me: Looking for some nasty scuttlebutt on the late and beloved actor/comedian who continues to make generation after generation laugh and cry over his tender, puppy-dog performances? Go elsewhere. You won't find anyone talking trash here about the iconic performer, and that includes friends, costars, directors and relatives. Director Colin Hanks' documentary might not dig too deep, but it does make for a refreshingly sweet documentary about Candy, who left us way too earl"
Murder Before Evensong is an old-school six-part series set in the cloistered 1980s community of Champton near London. A parishioner with a checkered past is found dead in the church, prompting questions about whether Anthony Bowness or Canon Daniel Clement was the intended victim. Canon Daniel receives hate mail for ministering to AIDS patients and, with his bossy mother Audrey and two dachshunds, becomes an amateur sleuth unraveling World War II history, secrets, trysts and paintings. Matthew Lewis and Amanda Redman provide engaging performances. Two episodes are available now with weekly releases and the series earns a three-star rating. John Candy: I Like Me, directed by Colin Hanks, offers a warm, affectionate portrait that emphasizes Candy's tender performances and enduring appeal while avoiding scandal.
