Murder on the Orient Express

I found this film at the library. I remember watching it a long time ago and wanted to watch it again.

Murder on the Orient Express is based on an Agatha Christie novel and full of colorful characters. As with most of her stories, there's a murder than someone needs to solve and find out "Whodunit".

For this film, the tasks falls to Detective Poirot; played by Albert Finney (Daddy Warbucks). Poirot is traveling on the Orient Express with a number of passengers and one of them ends up murdered! The suspect list includes:

Lauren Bacall as Harriet Belinda Hubbard
Ingrid Bergman as Greta Ohlsson
Sean Connery as Colonel Arbuthnot
Anthony Perkins as Hector Willard MacQueen
Michael York as the Count Andrenyi
plus many many more.

The beginning of the movie is rather boring until one of the characters pulls Detective Poirot aside as asks if he would be his body guard because his life is in danger. Poirot refuses and, sure enough, the next morning the man is found dead.

Which one of these characters was the murderer?

4 out of 5 stars.
