For the classic film, this Polo is most in line with Christie's original work.

There are several places in the film that involve the British Army. At the beginning, I thanked the Baltic British officer in Jordan, Colonel Armstrong and his serviceman, Mr. Bedos, and Colonel Absnot who served in the British Indian Army. The officer of the British army stationed in Jordan seems to be the Royal Artillry. In the film, it is stated that Colonel Armstrong is an officer of the Scots Guards of the British Army who was stationed in India. Therefore, he will only have a British orderly. It is impossible. With Indian orderly soldiers, it was impossible for Indians to join the British Army at that time. And Colonel Absnot judged from the striped tie that it was an officer of the Gurkhas Rifles, a Gurkhas Rifles in the British Indian Army that has now disappeared. Legally speaking, before India’s independence in 1947, all The Gurkha teams are all under the Indian Army. Therefore, the legal status of British officers in the Indian Army is completely different from that of officers stationed in the British Army in India.

Seeing that everyone is discussing law and morality at the end, I think that in life, we don't want to avoid breaking the law. What we really should do is to have a clear conscience.

It is a rare work that I have read the original but still allows me to enjoy the movie with peace of mind; it fully displays the oriental sentiment in the original (it's time to read Oriental Studies~). But for me, who can get 12 people to avenge after death (there are two divided by five), I really feel that I have no regrets in death. And, it's a pity that I didn't see the dubbed version of the above translation.
