Based on Agatha Christie’s novel, this 1974 adaption of `Murder on the Orient Express` follows detective Hercule Poirot as he investigates a murder aboard a luxury train. Featuring an ensemble cast, the film presents a classic whodunit where each passenger is a suspect, and careful observation reveals the surprising solution to the crime.
The star-studded cast features Albert Finney as Hercule Poirot, plus Lauren Bacall, Ingrid Bergman,
Sean Connery, Anthony Perkins, John Gielgud, Vanessa Redgrave and more!
122 minutes. Rated PG. Films are screened with subtitles where possible.
