"Murder on the Orient Express" can be said to be the first work of Agatha Christie filmed in a way that gathered many movie stars. The film was imitated by later detective films. "Murder on the Orient Express" focused on six Oscar winners, all of which gave wonderful performances. Poirot, played by Albert Finney, makes it difficult to distinguish his original appearance. The changeable style is breathtaking.
The prologue of the film uses pure images to explain the kidnapping cases related to the murder, and the effect is particularly good. The film is luxuriously produced, and the photography and soundtrack have reached a high level, but the rhythm is slow.
The film has a bright character image and a strong sense of the times. It has achieved artistic and box office success. The role of Poirot by Albert Finney is also unforgettable.
"Murder on the Orient Express" extends the inspiration of the story to the Orient Express from Istanbul to Calais. In connection with the entire "Poirot" series, its reasoning method is still relatively stylized. For example, the starting point of logic is often that everyone It is the murderer who finds the real culprit through the elimination of one by one argument and elimination method. In addition, logical assumptions are often made, and many doubts and actual situations are combined with imagination and deduction. There is also play tricks and tricks to make the culprit appear. This shooting and narrative technique is very amazing.
