The combination of an all star cast and picturesque scenery provide a timeless classic. Peter Ustinov is superb, as is David Niven who plays Poirots associate to perfection. Despite the plot varying fractionly from the novel it is very hard to find fault with this film, which holds your attention from beginning to end.
Probably the first Poirot film I ever saw - I was terrified by the menacing performances and situations in this film.
Set almost entirely on a boat - this is a claustrophobic, thrilling murder mystery.
With great performances from Maggie Smith, Peter Ustinov, Angela Langsbury and particularly Mia Farrow, this is an excellent and enthralling film which is no doubt a classic.
