Jigsaw 1962 Based on the novel Sleep Long, My Love by Hilary Waugh, screenplay and direction by Val Guest.
Jack Warner is DI Fred Fellows and Ronald Lewis is DS Jim Wilks, they are investigating a nasty murder of a woman. Her ID is obscured by the damage to the body. There's a suitcase but that leads to a living woman. A traveling salesman is a suspect but he turns out to have a good alibi. They catch the murderer when he slips up in his alibi.
A decent police procedural with a good cast and solid story. It did well at the box office in the UK and even better on the continent. Despite being 107 minutes it breezes along and doesn't seem overly long. Jack Warner is enjoyable as usual. Nice scenery in and around Brighton.
