Maybe following your heart is the only correct solution

I've been wanting to watch it for a long time, but I haven't dared to watch it since I heard it was scary. After watching it, I found out that it is not such a terrible case, just a classic old movie. I have been waiting for the reversal during the watching process. I thought the detective would reveal the information that a certain person was the murderer when he asked everyone, but in the end, the person with the least suspicion would be the murderer. Maybe the detective has seen too much. , always expecting a reversal. But for this movie, it is better to have no reversal, and it is more law-abiding, or that no reversal makes this movie more classic than there are reversals. I just didn't expect the detective to give up on telling the truth in the end. Ratchett single-handedly caused the tragedy of the Armstrong family, paid his own price on this train, but the people who killed Ratchett could go on with their lives. Maybe they'll get peace of mind and be good people, but is that right? Is it right not to be brought to justice? Perhaps the law at that time could not restore the truth and support justice, so what else can we believe and rely on? Do detectives have the right to release murderers for the law? Ratchett's sins are monstrous, and who can guarantee that he hasn't done a good deed? Armstrong has helped many people, is it possible that he is atonement for his former self? What is right and what is wrong? Maybe there is no conclusion to right and wrong.

There is right, there is wrong, there is middle now.

    Even with so many details cut out from Granny's book, the adapted movie still feels too complicated. But I think this level of adaptation is really successful. In addition to the old drama bones, the scene where the train starts and returns to the "civilized world" after the snow is finally cleared is also amazing.

    If so many people tried their best to kill me, I would kill myself. . .
