"Ah! mon ami, I would not put on the shoulders of the good God the burden of men's wrongdoing...
But I will not sit back and say "le bon Dieu has arranged everything, I will not interfere". Because I am convinced that le bon Dieu created Hercule Poirot for the express purpose of interfering. It is my métier."
Agatha Christie, Peril at End House

I just watered the "A Haunting in Venice" Hercule Poirot movie.

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Haunting_in_Venice)

I liked it, I enjoy "whodunit" stuff like Poirot and Sherlock Holmes.

Sure, it would've been nice if the characters would be mice, like in "The Great Mouse Detective", but this was really nice with humans, as well.

Viime aikoina olen muuten lukenut putkeen A. E. W. Masonin Hanaud-rikosromaaneja. Ostin Play-kaupasta lärpäkkeeseen semmoisen kaikki niteet muutamalla eurolla -tyyppisen koosteteoksen. Aina niitä lukee ennen kuin selkäänsä ottaa, vaikka toisaalta hyvin ymmärtää, miksi Hanaud jäi toisaalta #SherlockHolmes'in, toisaalta #HerculePoirot'n ja #LordPeterWimsey'n varjoon. #kirjallisuus #dekkarit #AEWMason

Sick and not feeling well. Hammering Brit Box watching Poirot. #HerculePoirot #DavidSuchet

"You are talking like a thriller by a lady novelist."

(Chief Inspector Japp to Hercule Poirot. In: One, Two, Buckle My Shoe. By Agatha Christie.)

Huomasin, että Areenalle on eilen julkaistu muutama #AgathaChristie n kirjoihin perustuva #minisarja.

Yksi niitä Poirot-tarina. Ja niin, Poirottina ei ole #DavidSuchet, vaan #JohnMalkovich.

Vaikka #Malkovich onkin mahtava, vaatii tämä kyllä pohdintaa, että pystyykö katsoa vai eikö pysty.

#Suchet in #HerculePoirot on kuitenkin klassikko ja legenda. Se on kuva Poirotista. Hän on #Poirot.

My word!
and
Oh I say!

Watching Hercules Poirot mystery "The Dream", and 6:20 in, Miss Lemon expresses her frustration with a jammed typewriter, and while her mouth moves as if she's saying "bother", the DVD soundtrack has her saying something most unladylike

Starts with "F", like Firetruck …

I found a few discussions about this, and there's no mistaking the sound on the DVD from the library, so I wonder is this a prank, an 'easter egg', a fun edit which accidentally got released, or is there some deeper story?

Seriously, #Poirot series makers?

If this seal (and the string it's attached to) have been there for 3,000 years, then surely a knife, a vigorous tug, or even a stern glare, would have parted the unremarkable string.
It even looks like the string might be loose enough to be manipulated off the doorknobs.

But, no, you have these eminent archaeologists decide to smash the unique seal in order to open the door? Not taking a cast, or a rubbing of the seal first?

"Drinking with Agatha Christie."

In Christie's novels, a character's choice of beverage always deepens the mystery.

I find Hercule Poirot to be a most agreeable character, one after my own heart.
Also “Murder On The Orient Express” (2017) is an enjoyable film. C’est très bien.
Also also the actors are some of my favorites.
