Upon the attractive atmosphere of this film which follows a mysteries and crimes happened in the 1935 in the car of the detective Hercule Poirot, who was called because the crime which murder in his car without any introduction. All that happened in the night before travelling in his train and it stops because of the heavy snow.
Though the ending's pretty obvious, even for those who haven't read the book, you can't deny the power of this cast.

Much of the film truly does belong to Finney's Poirot -- and to his scenes with Martin Balsam and George Colouris --all of which are endlessly entertaining and fascinating.
Lumet pulls off an incredible adaptation of a marvelous book.
