No, the blogger who just watched the Christmas special of "Doctor Who" and started planning to watch "Sherlock" on the big screen is really busy.
In 2015, it happened to be the 125th birthday of Agatha Christie, the queen of mystery novels, and the BBC remade the most famous "No Survivor" of Grandma, and released it in the form of a 3-episode mini-series on the second day of Christmas.
Although I know that the BBC is good at mini-series, it is still a bit uncomfortable as a blogger of Queen fans. I don't know which prawn can suppress a 3-episode coherent version. After all, the Queen's novel should be so smooth and smooth.
In any case, let's take a look at the highlights of this version first.
Aspect 1: The cast of the blind-eyed cast The cast of
this remake is not an exaggeration to describe it as an all-star lineup. Not only are there several old actors who have excellent acting skills and temperament and reputation, but also all kinds of handsome guys and beauties make the audience's nose bleed!
Charles Dance
posted a domineering and side-leak still photo!
No one knows this guy! Since the old man Danse took the lunch box in the "Game of Thrones" crew, he has started to mess around in various other crews.
In this play, Danse plays the role of "Judge". Those of you who have read the novel know that the judge is the darkest character in this story. So besides Lord Tywin, who else is more suitable? The old man's always black appearance is already very convincing.
In addition, don't you think that the old man has a strange resemblance to the queen's husband, Prince Philip? (O(∩_∩)O~)
Aidan Turner
What, didn't you recognize it? OK, let's change the look.

right! This is the dwarf (diao) rude (si) who successfully fell in love with (bai) spirit (fu) spirit (mei) in "The Hobbit"!
Classmate Aidan, who is responsible for the appearance and body of this drama, really lives up to expectations!
"Director, that bath towel has nothing to do with the plot, please take it away!"
You ask me, did they roll the sheets? Hehe, I will tell you about this kind of easter egg in advance?
Burn Gorman
Everyone knows this one too! Born with a nervous comedy face, everyone loves it!
This person has made professional guest appearances in various large and small film and television dramas for more than ten years! Perhaps the most well-known character is the proud mathematician of the Pacific Rim research duo.
Miranda Richardson
This mother-in-law is also very productive with various cameos. She was a typical English lady when she was young, and she has the same charm in old age.
Remember the glamorous and domineering stepmother in Sleepy Hollow who treated the devil as a slave?
Douglas Booth
Of course, those in front of them are nothing, but the little fresh meat with red lips and white teeth is everyone's favorite!
This handsome guy with the enchanting appearance has successfully captured the hearts of the vast number of nympho girls with the "Jupiter Ascending" of the Super Mary Sue.
I won't talk about the other ones, just see for yourself!
Point 2: Loyal to the ending of the original
novel No One Survives, published in 1939, is the best-selling novel by Agatha Christie, with more than 100 million copies currently, ranking seventh in the global novel distribution list. However, it has established its historical status because it has created a new reasoning story mode - "Blizzard Villa Mode", also known as "Island Mode". Whether it is the famous reasoning and solving stories in the later period such as "Kin Tianyi" and "Hyperbolic Murder Case", or the "Deadly ID" that everyone talks about in recent years, the source is actually "No One Survives".
Among the 66 long mystery novels of Her Lady Queen, "No One Survives" is also the most remake, 10 of which I know of. But most of the remakes use the theatrical ending, leaving Vera and Lombard alive. (Bloggers don't like this kind of ending very much, didn't they say yes and then there were none!)
The latest BBC one, however, adopted the original novel version of the ending in a maverick fashion.
Don't worry about changing the ending in other versions. The ending of the stage version is also written by the queen herself.
The Queen once said in an interview with the publishing house that she likes to think of a variety of different ways of committing crimes for a case, and she can't tell which one is true. . .
Ah, I seem to see Her Lady Queen's black belly smile again.
Sorry, I sent the wrong picture.
Of course, this remake has also made a lot of changes to the details of the plot, some to simplify the complexity of the plot, some to enhance the visual impact, and some to be "politically correct".
I won't go into details, just see for yourself.
Aspect 3: Sins in the Sun is
a story that is familiar to the public and has been filmed many times. It is very difficult to make a breakthrough in the plot. The director cleverly weakened the reasoning part of the case, and focused on the psychological description of the characters.
There are many symbolic and echoing scenes in it.
For example, the death of the general character: the
chef discards the entrails and attracts the scavengers to pick it up (EP1)
Carrion birds hover over the general's body (EP2)
Another example is the death of the female teacher: the
female teacher saw the lanyard of the train curtain (EP1)
The female teacher found that the murderer prepared for her to hang herself The Rope (EP3)
Besides, it is a British drama produced by BBC after all, how can there be less beautiful pastoral scenery?
In a word, the correct way to open this commemorative remake must be -
worship!
Madam Queen, please accept the kneeling and licking of the majority of true fans!
