While we would ordinarily reach for the barf bag upon the mere mention of director Michael Winner (The Sentinel, The Wicked Lady, Death Wish 1, 2, 3), the source material-Agatha Christie's delightful mystery-defied even Mr. Winner's considerable talents for turning everything he touches into something quite less than gold. And who can resist Peter Ustinov's wonderful Hercule Poirot? (Most of the video critics on this one.) Piper Laurie is the superbly bitchy murder victim, who is surrounded by a stellar cast of suspects: Lauren Bacall, Hayley Mills, Carrie Fisher, David Soul, and others. Sir John Gielgud is also on hand. Witty script by Anthony Shaffer (Sleuth, The Wicker Man.)
