[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 416895, member: 23"] Yes, they're apples and oranges, really. I think the darker, more claustrophobic and wintry setting of [I]Orient Express[/I] feels more atmospheric and works really well for this genre. But Nile is sunnier and feels more expansive and grand which somehow makes the story feel more palatable and accessible. Creating an even greater divide are the two quite different interpretations of Poirot, both of which I enjoy in different ways. Albert Finney is closer to the character on the page, but I'm quite fond of Ustinov's more avuncular and jolly take (unlike Agatha Christie who I believe liked Finney's reading of the character but didn't care for Peter Ustinov).
