Ten Little Indians
(1965)
Directed by George
Pollock this film based on the novel “And Then There Were None”
stars Shirley Eaton, Hugh O'Brian, Stanley Holloway and Dennis Price.
Ten strangers are invited to a remote house in the Alps by a man none
of them know and are all accused of being guilty of murder.
By the end of the film
the plot ends up feeling contrived and we never get an explanation
for how anyone knew so much about these people's secrets. There are
some changes to the original novel but the one to the ending is at
least in part the same as Christie's own stage version. Some moments
are a little over the top such as giving the audience a break in the
film to discuss “who done it” but otherwise this is a fairly well
made film.
2/5
