There are many people on a ship stopping at different places.
There are men dressed like Arabs with turbans playing violin music while people are eating on the boat in the dining room. Music sounds so fake when you look at the band. David Niven befriends Poirot. Niven is the most real character as a lawyer in this movie.
People start getting killed and no one seems to know anything. There are a lot of stars in this and they all seem to be overacting. Angela Lansbury is one of my favorite actresses but not in this movie. She is loud, overdressed with jewels, constantly drunk and walks like a drunk in most of the scenes swaying from side to side.
Mia Farrow is given Morphia whatever that is to me it sounds like morphine. She screams acts nuts and has to be taken back to her room. She is on the boat with a previous boyfriend who is married to some one else and had maniac outburst and speech.
Bette Davis. She is dressed like a rich lady and loves her jewels. Her care taker is very bossy. Then there is the doctor who thinks he knows everything.
By the time you hear from Poirot at the end you wished you had not wasted your time waiting for who done what and why.
Peter Ustinov was not too bad but he was no David Suchet. Albert Finney played Poirot in another movie and he was worse then Ustinov. They all had fake accents in the Albert Finney Poirot you could not understand what they said.
I have a lot of the Poirot series 13 seasons of episodes with David Suchet as Poirot. The stories are not mixed with nuts and drunks.They have more mystery & suspense. At the end Poirot explains to everyone who the culprits are in a sane way.
