2024 movie #33. 1950. Young actress helps her friend who's accused of murdering his lover's husband. But then she falls for the detective working the case. Kind of a rom-com mystery. I actually easily spotted the Hitchcock cameo in this one.
A struggling actress tries to help a friend prove his innocence when he's accused of murdering the husband of a high-society entertainer.

¡Qué personaje, Violeta! Grandes anteojos, trenzas retorcidas, rostro intelectual, esta temible criatura de 12 años emplea su fabuloso ingenio par arreglar los trastornos... ¡que ella misma provoca!
Narradas con un estilo irónico y vibrante, plenas de ingenio y humor, las aventuras de Violeta dejan en el lector la vívida imagen de un personaje inolvidable. Claro que no muy humilde: "Soy una niña prodigio" -afirma Violeta- "aunque deba decirlo yo misma".
