## Description

Three adventures featuring Agatha Christie's Belgian supersleuth, Hercule Poirot (David Suchet). In 'Mrs McGinty's Dead', when James Bentley (Joe Absolom) is arrested for the murder of old Mrs McGinty, it seems like an open and shut case. But Superintendent Spence (Richard Hope) isn't convinced and calls on Poirot to try and track down the real killer. 'Cat Among the Pigeons' begins when elderly school headmistress, Miss Bulstrode (Harriet Walter), is warned by a parent that she has recognised somebody at the school from her days in the intelligence service. A murder soon follows, and Poirot is on hand to try to solve it. Finally, in 'Third Girl', when a young woman visits Poirot to get his help regarding a murder that she believes she has committed, she is shocked by his age and leaves without telling her story. Poirot is keen to track her down and establish whether she is guilty, innocent or just plain insane.

Review: David Suchet stands for Accuracy, Precision and Excellence... - As per my review of the precedent Boxed Set (the 6 Collection set, to be specific), in which I already did praise the high quality work of Mr. Suchet in recreating the character of Poirot, practically from scratch, this additional 7th Collection (comprising 2 DVDs with the four last episodes filmed (Mrs. McGinty's Dead / Cat Among Pigeons / Third Girl / Appointment with Death), will certainly not disappoint the viewer. The quality is still the same, if not even more enhanced (especially where ambiance, music and photography are concerned - seemingly, and if I am not mistaken, the same technique applied to Agatha Christie's Marple: The Moving Finger, appears here as well). The "aura", especially in "Third Girl" and "Appointment with Death" is far darker than in previous similar episodes and the mood is really that of a true Thriller, more than just a murder mystery. Everyone does his job well in these episodes, and I do not mean just the actors, but the entire crew as well. Far gone are the "foolish" attempts of the Peter Ustinov's versions, to update and revision the stories. Now, what I am still expecting as the coronation to the series is the one, single episode that could make or break the entire franchise, and those of you, familiar with Poirot's lore, may already know, what I am hinting at. Indeed, "Murder on the Orient Express" is the one I am hinting at. Despite its 1974 successful release, starring Albert Finney as Poirot and an all Star cast, there was something strident that hinted more to Hollywoodiana, than truly taking the subject seriously. It is true that the photography was gorgeous and that the sets were accurate, but Albert Finney was far too fidgety in portraying Poirot and at times appeared to be more of a nervous wreck, rather than the cool-handed and cerebral one, portrayed by David Suchet. I truly hope that the decision will be made to generously finance that particular episode, which I suspect, will turn out to be a made-for-television movie. I also hope that this particular one will put a mark of excellence to the entire series and consecrate therefore the entire franchise as the "definitive" Poirot of all times, recommended for all film makers as a matter of study and for actors, as a reference on how to create a character out of a few details and make it their own. I would immediately give it six or even seven stars, but five is the limit, so I must stick with these. For those who love David Suchet's portrayal, my recommendation is superfluous, for those who have never watched it on TV or have just begun to follow it, know that this is the Poirot to own. Highly recommended.
Review: Worth the Price - Re: Appointment with Death The murderer and motive were altered--to explore the tragic lives of this tormented clan under a cruel matriarch--a more family dimension. Why can't they amend this story? It's a film adaptation. Stick to your books if you want to be purists. Even Christie amended Appointment with Death for dramatization--she also rewrote Appointment with Death as a play MINUS Poirot! In other novels to plays, she would change the plot, aware of the impact of different mediums. Likewise, this screenplay adaptation from a novel. On this Series Generally As a whole, these later dramatized stories explore the human dimension--the loss of lives, the consequences on those impacted--these have an emotional toll on Poirot, who has evolved, through years of solving crimes, from interacting with people--Poirot is now older, wiser, more diplomatic, more sympathetic to everyone he deals with. No more just a cat and mouse parlour trick to tease his little grey cells, but all is seen through a glass darkly. As a series, all these episodes are lavishly produced--suberb attention to details--and these changes have been purposefully and carefully done, remaining true to the spirit of the tales, capturing their essence, albeit showing more the emotional devastation on everyone involved. We sympathize with the characters when their sad histories are shown with greater sensitivity. Imagine the money it costs to produce this series--recreate these settings, the far flung locations, the sophisticated cinematography and editing, the work involved in these screenplay adaptations--a true labour of love. I hope Suchet gets further funding to go on to the ultimate Curtain. Definitely worth the money.
