Murder on the Orient Express

Albert Finney is magnificent as Agatha Christie's "Poirot" in this murder mystery set amidst the luxury and isolation of the Orient Express train as it travels from Istanbul to Calais, getting stuck in a snow drift en route. A cast to make your eyes water all vie for the responsibility of murdering Richard Widmark. Why, we ask, so brutally murder an oriental pottery collector? Well Lauren Bacall, Sean Connery and Ingrid Bergman are just a few of the suspects under the scrutinious eye of our travelling Belgian sleuth, alongside Martin Balsam's railway director, who asks Poirot to investigate.
