This 1974 production of Agatha Christie's 1934 classic directed by Sidney Lumet is a judicious mixture of mystery, murder and nostalgia. Which member of the all-star cast, onboard the luxurious train, perforated the no-good American tycoon (Richard Widmark) with a dagger twelve times? Albert Finney as Hercule Poirot spreads unease among them with subdued wit and finesse.
