  • Movie Class by PizzaFLIX: Agatha Christie is the best-selling novelist of all time, with her books selling over 2 billion copies! Christie’s "And Then There Were None“ has been adapted to film over a dozen times, but our 1945 version is widely considered the iconic one to watch.
    Stars: Barry Fitzgerald, Walter Huston, Roland Young, and many more!
    Director: Rene Clair
    In Agatha Christie's classic mystery, ten people are invited to an isolated island. While they wait for their mysterious host to appear, the guests begin to be murdered. Could one of them be the killer? This version is an adaptation from Christie's successful stage play, not of her novel, Ten Little Indians, and the most glaring difference is what happens in the last few minutes.
    TRIVIA: Richard Haydn, who plays the Butler, also did the voice of the Caterpillar in Disney's "Alice in Wonderland."

    Has held up incredibly well. My kids are getting into murder mysteries and wanted to see a classic, but I wasn't sure how a 78 year old film made before my own father was born would go. It was a big hit, scary, funny, and thrilling. There are films from five years ago that haven't aged this well.

      I've seen the series. I suppose the most recent version of the story, on BBC-first, couple of years ago.
      It was done in the most horrific way. Not gory or something, on the contrary. But the feeling of dread through that whole series.
      Of course I do know the whole Ten Little Niggers story behind it, which was changed into Ten Little Soldiers and then into And then there were none. If I'm not mistaken. Good to see that sometimes political correctness is important.
      I'm 60, and when I think about some things I wrote in other girls poetry albums...aweful. Without realising that, of course. I'm gonna give this version a go!!

    "Everyone has to eat a peck of dirt before he dies." My dad said this quote to me when I was 6 or 7yrs old. I took it the wrong way - I didn't want to die too soon so I became a clean freak, for life. Now that I am seventy, I have to laugh at that little girl. Many times I have wanted to share it with him, but he died of cancer when I was nine. Thank you for sharing all of these great oldies.

      I have learned that if you keep everything sterile then you often get sick more than others because you are not used to germs. My dad never cared about cleaning and the only time his home was clean was when I visited him with years in between and the man was never sick not even a cold or headache and though he has smoked 40 cigarets most of his life and he drank a lot the man is still alive and 83 years old. Now for the last few years he has had home helpers who comes and cleans his home for him:) But let me say he walked to and from work every day and it was a long walk and would go for rides on his bicycle and was always a skinny man. I think all that fresh air he got did him good and using his body. He is now almost blind and still goes out on his handicap 3 wheeler and stays out 3 hours every time.

    Hard to believe that this film was made just over 80 years ago, yet it still maintains its brilliant story-line of horror and humour. I have seen this before, a few times in fact, but I still enjoy it, even though I know the outcome. Excellent casting as well. Incredible that it's been kept in as pristine condition as possible for its age.

      @Finister Foul: That reminds me of the movie based on Clue, I think; or it might have been Murder by Death, both comedies anyway. Half of the cast are in one room and the rest in the entrance hall outside. Something happens in the room and the people shriek and run to the door. The people in the hall hear them yelling and run to the door. The ones in the room are pounding and yelling, “Let us out! Let us out!” And the people in the hall are pounding and yelling “Let us in! Let us in!” It was one of the most hysterical scenes I’ve seen.

      @@renzo6490 It is because he was forced to obey the social class rules from birth. The sad fact is that if you come from a poor family, and your father was a butler, they teach you that your life duty is to provide for your employer. It works the other way around as well. Most of the guest were murdered, because they believe in the rigid British class system - They didn't believe that a person who is a judge - a most respectable profession - could ever be a murderer. That is Christie's whole idea - If Rogers hadn't been forced to act on his role as a lower-class servant, he wouldn't have been murdered so easily.

Guess that he must have broken in & because Rogers who never drank must (having downed everyone's glass and more later) have fallen into an extremely deep slumber and never heard the noise.

      But the people at the studio who determined how the film would end allowed the two romantic leads to survive....Agatha Christie killed them all off. Since this is the most successful of her novels in terms of sales and is one of the best selling books ever published with 100 million copies sold, you’d think they would have used her ending which is far superior to this. But no! 100 million people couldn’t be right!

There' is a modern BBC I think production in which the development is closer to the book. That's why, Agatha killed Poirot and gave strict instructions to be published only after her death.

    For anyone who might be interested, I’ve reconstructed the voting beginning at 41:58 from the clues that are revealed prior to the voting so that it is possible to know who exactly voted for who.
    Everyone received at least one vote except for Miss Claythorne, her name was the only name “never mentioned.”
    Rogers alone received two votes. (I will save the identity of the two who voted for him last).
    Miss Brent definitely did not vote for Mr. Blore. She considered it, but then convinced herself that it was not him. Instead, I think she probably voted for Lombard being the killer.
    Rogers voted for Mr. Blore. (Process of elimination. All other voters can be reasonably accounted for).
    Vera Claythorne definitely voted for Dr. Armstrong. She told Lombard that she suspected him earlier.
    Dr. Armstrong definitely voted for Miss Brent. It is strongly implied by the affirmative shaking of his head when whispering to the judge. The judge did not vote for Miss Brent.
    Lombard definitely voted for the Judge being the killer. He explained as much to Vera.
    Dr. Armstrong did not vote for Rogers. But he was correct when he said that whoever suspected Rogers of being the killer would not drink the cocktails he made. Rogers drinks the cocktails of Blore (who made his suspicion of Rogers clear earlier) and the judge, the only ones not touched.

    This version, although not completely faithful to the book, is really good. The actors are great and the pacing is perfect. One of the big changes that this film made was the ending, which is altered from the books ending. They chose to go with a happy ending. But in 1945, I doubt test audiences wanted to see a story with a bleak ending where everyone dies.

      The movie is actually better than the book. Just my opinion.

    Read this book when I was in 7th grade and we also watched the movie. Such a great book and movie.

    I've spent the lockdown watching old movies (the newest ones from the early 60s, you know, classic Hollywood). I've wathed close to 50 now, and this is one of the best! Top 5, I'd say.

    I love this movie and have seen it many times, but one thing that always crosses my mind is the impeccable timing and pre-knowledge of where the victims would be in order to accomplish the murders. I.E. the stone decoration falling from atop the house with a victim standing directly beneath. Some things you just have to let go.
