Murder on the Orient Express (DVD)

Elegant, escapist entertainment at its stylishly European best! This Agatha Christie whodunit boasts an incredible international cast of some of the most wonderfully eccentric characters ever created. Albert Finney is the dapper detective Hercule Poirot, for whom murder-solving is a precise, intellectual exercise. Poirot agrees to interview all aboard the famous train’s Calais coach, hoping to find the killer of an American millionaire before the local police arrive. Among the suspects: Lauren Bacall, Martin Balsam, Ingrid Bergman, Jacqueline Bisset, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Sean Connery, John Gielgud, Wendy Hiller, Anthony Perkins, Vanessa Redgrave, Rachel Roberts, Richard Widmark and Michael York. Directed by the great Sidney Lumet (12 Angry Men), packed with sparkling dialogue and visually rich in texture, this incomparable thriller received six Academy Award® nominations, with Ingrid Bergman winning Best Actress in a Supporting Role (1974) for her role as the slightly dim-witted, Bible-quoting Swedish missionary.
