An fine emotion driven, psychologically focused mystery.,

This review is from: Unsuitable Job for a Woman [VHS] (VHS Tape)
An Unsuitable Job For A Woman is a dark, subtly erotic duo of mysteries on three video tapes. The private detective, Cordelia Gray, attempts to solve murder cases through the use of typical clues and through the use of the emotional states of the other characters. Cordelia is an imperfect person with a traumatic past. This makes her a very interesting detective. This mystery is a thinking person's adventure. It is for those of you who do not want to have to check your brains in at the box office. I highly recommend AN UNSUITABLE JOB FOR A WOMAN.

I've enjoyed most of PD James' books so I was pleased to buy the PBS video. However, I was very disappointed to watch these tapes. As the previous reviewer wrote, the tapes are incomplete. Do not buy this version. You will only be frustrated. Stick with the books!

Error in Listed Runtime,

I contacted WGBH Boston to inquire about discrepencies in the listed runtime, and was informed that there was a printing error on the VHS jackets that resulted in people thinking this series was meant to be twice as long as it actually was. I hope that helps people make a decision. I remember really enjoying this series when it was first aired on American PBS.

Don't buy these tapes - they are incomplete,
By Terri Puryear (San Pablo, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Unsuitable Job for a Woman [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The box advertises this set as two tales - a three part and a two part. The total run time is 330 minutes and is comprised of two tapes. However, each tape is only 55 min long - so there should be six tapes. The first two tapes are parts I and II of the first tale, then tape III is part I of the second. Obviously something is missing. And yes, we fast forwarded to the end after committing two hours to watch 2 of 3 episodes and then not to be able to finish is disappointing as best.
