As a classic of detective novels, I only enjoy the process of reasoning, and other things about morality and law are not what I care about reading this type of novel.
The novel is very exciting, and this version of the film is basically based on the novel and reproduces this carefully planned murder. The movie doesn't change much from the novel, but the small changes make Poirot more human and the murder more traceable.
In the original novel, Poirot used the hairnet to discover the true identity of the deceased Ratchett on the second day of the incident, and there was no actual evidence that the handle in Mrs. Hubbard's room was on the latch. Poirot's sensitive detective nerves were responsible for the whole case. .
And a few minor changes to the film make Poirot less of a dick:
First, the peachy news of Colonel Abbasnot
Fiction: When Poirot asked Colonel Abbasnot, he focused on his opinion of Miss Debeyham, the colonel began to say very excitedly: "It's a lady!" and finally added: "She is innocent, she A true gentleman."
Movie: When Miss Debenham was questioned, the colonel was very irritable outside, and then rushed directly into the dining car to save the beauty, and confessed to Poirot that he was married, and that he was afraid of being caught during the divorce. Denies knowing Debehan's peach affair.
Second, except for Mrs. Hubbard, Mrs. Armstrong's mother, Linda Arden, who was an actress, the other twelve were not actors, and they lost control on the spot when someone was questioned, and the Italians were seeing pictures of their girlfriends. It collapsed on the spot, and the Duchess was powerless in the face of Poirot's tight-knit questioning.
All his composure was wiped to ashes the moment the wound was opened. Poirot completed the puzzle after questioning everyone, and solved the shocking case.
The highlight of the film is that when twelve people murdered sinners, they were full of religious colors. Everyone lined up to hold the blade of judgment, and before stabbing the knife, they would say, "For me "Dear daughter and granddaughter" "for my sister and niece"... Tried the crime and carried out the death penalty with his own repentance.
