After watching every Poirot episode played by David Suchet I knew the bar was set very high. However Peter Ustinov gives a marvellous portrayal of the famous Belgian detective. His acting is effortless as he easily slips into Hercule Poirot's shoes in this mystery. He is very believable as a the great sleuth and you feel he has been doing this all his life. This also happened to be one of the best Agatha Christie Poirot novels that was dramatized. A mystery so well planned and executed it would fool the best of us.
The supporting cast was superb as well and gave great performances. We have a rich list of acclaimed stars giving life to Agatha Christie's characters.
