Disappointing rehashes of Christie is what we get these days. See Kenneth Branagh's recent Poirot attempt.
If we're giving out links to harrowing yet anticlimactic tales on Wikipedia, may I suggest https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Carter_rabbit_incident https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Carter_rabbit_incident
- craz8 7y agoI kind of liked the Branagh movie but it suffered from 2 things: 1: I noticed how good the cinematography was - I was not immersed enough to not see how good they were at setting the scene 2: David Suchet nailed Poirot so well it’s impossible for anyone else to even try I don’t know if anyone else has owned a character as well as Suchet has done Poirot, but I’d love to hear arguments for others!
- regularfry 7y agoIn particular David Suchet doing Orient Express was so good, and so comparatively recent, it's kind of surprising that's what they picked.
