Das Böse unter der Sonne

Alex Desmond presents: Evil Under the Sun (a FINE CRIME movie event) and talks about the making of the movie, anecdotes and gives us background information before the screening of “Evil Under the Sun”. Broadway star Arlena Marshall is a nasty scab in her private life. Together with other illustrious personalities, the diva spends her vacation on an island in the Mediterranean. One day she is found strangled to death on the beach. A welcome brain teaser for Hercule Poirot. But his search for the murderer turns out to be extremely difficult against the picturesque backdrop of a luxury hotel, because anyone among the vacation guests would have had a good reason for the murder... James Bond director Guy Hamilton (“Goldfinger”, “Diamond Fever” and “The Man with the Golden Arm”) stages Agatha Christie's novel adaptation with a great star cast and creates an atmosphere between comfort and evil intrigue. The sophisticated aura is supported by the soundtrack, which consists of a series of Cole Porter songs.
