Masterpiece Theatre: Poirot: Murder on the Orient Express (2010)

Hercule Poirot is seen here in his finest hour in Murder on the Orient Express.  The prim Belgium detective is a passenger on the Orient Express bound for London when a murder occurs aboard the train.  Sifting through a litany of suspects, Poirot is puzzled with the evidence leads to more than one suspect.  Can it be true?

Let me say it again: David Suchet makes this detective.  I will never be able to imagine Poirot any other way.  Though the episode is darker and more ominous that we've come to expect, the production is thrilling in part to Suchet's emobodiment of the characters.  Supported by other fine BRitish actors, the production is brilliantly executed.  As with all BBC productions, no expense seems to be spared.

Fans of the detective will no doubt enjoy!
