Maybe being a passenger was glamorous when Agatha Christie penned Murder on the Orient Express or Peter, Paul, and Mary sang "Leaving on a Jet Plane," but in today's unfriendly skies airline passengers wait in interminable lines to check luggage, get through security, and board their flight--only to discover that other passengers have already filled the overhead bins, grabbed both armrests, and popped back their seats. ``Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express,'' based on the author's arguably most famous and infamous book, proffers Alfred Molina as Poirot and updates the action to contemporary times, though it cushions its production design in a stylishly amorphous, vaguely nostalgic setting hinting at a sinuous sensuality. Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express draws fans in as they step aboard a lavishly appointed 1930's era train along with a cast of 25 intriguing characters led by acclaimed Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, and including philanthropist Samuel Ratchett and Princess Dragomiroff, all traveling from Istanbul to London. |
