Agatha Christie's Poirot

The novel was adapted into a 1974 movie, which is considered one of the most successful cinematic adaptations of Christie's work ever. The film starred Albert Finney as Poirot and an all-star cast of suspects including Sean Connery, Lauren Bacall, Anthony Perkins, John Gielgud, Vanessa Redgrave and Ingrid Bergman, who won the 1974 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Greta Ohlsson. Another version was made for television in 2001, with Alfred Molina as Poirot. This version updates the setting of the novel to the twenty-first century.
