The Cat's Meow

Mildly amusing and/or involving, depending upon the moment and the scene. The story has its intrigue--mysterious deaths tend to be that way--and the presentation is well done, but something's missing. Maybe the failing lies with the cast, who have to capture some very famous personalities (for instance, Eddie Izzard playing Charlie Chaplin) and are not necessarily up to the task. If you're the mystery type, or an Jazz Age aficionado, check it out. Otherwise, the cat should nap.
