Exit Wang Zhengliang - Say a few more words at exit The original author of the film, Agatha Christie (1890-1976), was a famous British female detective novelist, playwright, and one of the three great masters of reasoning literature. Agatha Christie is very prolific. Her work is not limited to detective novels. Her total works include 66 full-length mystery novels, 21 anthologies of short stories or novellas, 15 staged or published scripts, 3 script collections, 6 emotional novels published under the pseudonym Mary West McCourt, 2 published under the pseudonym Agatha Christie Mallowan, 1 autobiography, 2 poetry collections, 2 with a member writer of the Detective Club A long mystery novel written by them together. According to Guinness World Records, Agatha Christie is one of the best-selling authors in human history. So far, his works have been translated into more than 103 languages, and the total sales exceeded 2 billion. About the Orient Express On October 4, 1883, a train named Express d'Orient (French, Orient Express) departed from Paris, and after 3 days, 9 hours and 40 minutes, arrived in Istanbul, which is at the junction of Europe and Asia. . In those days, such a long-distance trip can be said to be a perfect example of organizational work: the world's first cross-continental train, once full of homesickness, full of princes and princesses from various countries, accompanied by a large number of spies and fraud criminals, through the Europe and Asia are far more divided than they are now. This adventurous journey was carried out by the avid train enthusiast George Najmak, who negotiated between the kings, administrators and bureaucracies of various countries, intimidating, intimidating, and courting in various ways, so as to keep the passengers from not being able to. Travel through seven different kingdoms without any disturbance.
This is a luxury train "travel empire" that is all-encompassing in providing luxury service without minding cost and expense. The flight attendants push breakfast to bedroom boxes with plush carpets on each floor, and the onboard kitchen offers gourmet cuisine from around the world. What the Orient Express wants to build is not a train with a restaurant, but a "mobile palace" on a train wheel.
The symbolism of such a train has gone far beyond the physical level. It has been in operation for 94 years, and writers and composers have created 6 movies, 19 novels, and a song based on it.

1 of this film
understands the previous background, and the story presented in this film is clear at a glance. If you look at it in a general sense, you will only be attracted by Ashi's dazzling reasoning design, busy with her ingenuity and ignoring its sociological value, such Agatha Christie is not enough to become an idol for hundreds of millions of people, and at the same time It also made Elizabeth II and de Gaulle fall for it.
As the film says, this murder story is not only full of European disdain for the United States that cannot be concealed, it is comparable to the ancient Chinese distinguishing between groups of people with etiquette rather than ethnic distinctions. The hatred is so deep that it is necessary to kill an American in a way that everyone who sees it has a stab at it. With every stab, I don't forget to swear at it: bastard! Bastards! For my daughter and granddaughter! For my sister and niece! for mine. . . Through different countries, different levels and different identities, he listed 12 reasons why Americans are left to die. Wouldn't this be a pleasure for those who hold the same concept? Yes, on the night the road was blocked by heavy snow, the American "devil" was stabbed 12 times deep and shallow on the Orient Express, which was dominated by European nobles.

The deceased wanted to use money to make Poirot, and Poirot said: My income is enough to meet daily and occasional (temporary) needs, I don't need to serve money at all, I only choose the cases I am interested in. In fact, Poirot is not only for interest, but more importantly for "conscience". Anyway, this is how the film is arranged. When the truth has been exposed, the plot has been reversed! Poirot proposed two options, one is to provide the facts and hand it over to the police in the small town of Brod (it should be noted that Brod is located in the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, present-day Republic of Croatia). This will be the hot potato facing the small town; the other is that the big things are reduced, the trivial things are reduced, and then the answer is nothing, that is, this car of people uniformly covers up the murder facts of the group committing the crime, and then frames the poor mafia. , The mafia is a basket, anything can be put in it.
All in all, the story goes that the law could not restrain a villain and allow him to escape justice with the help of money, and years later, a group of people (just enough for a jury) came together without trial. The villain was secretly killed in a brutal way, and then with the help of detectives, directors and forensics, he also escaped justice. OK, this is a story trying to show that the truth is a p and the law is a p. No procedure, no trial, murder is procedure and killing is trial. At the end of the film, the 12 unexposed murderers even held a simple celebration ceremony.

The origin of the jury system is rather obscure, and someone finds this provision in the laws of the Anglo-Saxon king Ethelred: "In every village of a hundred, twelve elder squires and mayor together hold the holy We swear by things, not to prosecute innocent people, and not to hide criminals.” It is worth mentioning that China does not have such a system.
