The movie deserves to have some details from the original removed, but what I'm talking about is the added elements. The new Egyptian crew, the cobras in the Poirot barn and the local salvage methods are all interesting. One of the reasons why I like the world created by Grandma is that each of her stories has the brilliance that emerges when different cultures meet. This difference comes from different regions and different classes. People of different attire and class of thought appear on a boat, and people from different identities of countries appear on an express train. They enrich the whole story. And the European flair of the early 20th century that doesn't change and hits me exactly, it's my favorite. The breadth of Grandma's stories and the charm of words can cross the language barrier. The former is what I think is better than Japanese mystery novels, and the latter is what I think is better than the Sherlock Holmes series.
In addition, I don't know if there are other people who like to listen to the dialogues mixed in different languages in Granny's film and television. The reflexed voice of the old Otterburn woman in this film is especially interesting.
