Mord im Orientexpress
Previously dissatisfied with most film adaptations of her works, Agatha Christie was thrilled with Lumet's crime thriller: Albert Finney plays Hercule Poirot with eccentric severity (and an admittedly oversized moustache), surrounded by a star-studded ensemble that is second to none. The eponymous Orient Express, snowed in somewhere between Istanbul and Calais, becomes a stage for moral grey areas, and the master detective has only a few hours to solve the mystery of the murder of one of the passengers. Each compartment becomes a stage, each suspect a piece of the puzzle. Guilt, revenge and justice merge into a cool, murderous round dance with an absurd yet captivating resolution – a perverted counterpoint to Lumet's TWELVE ANGRY MEN, so to speak.
