Winter 1915, to Baghdad. The famous detective, the belgian Hercule Poirot on a visit to Turkey to return prematurely in France, and this unexpected return poses a problem, since returning from Turkey in France requires at the beginning of the twentieth century a prior booking a few days in advance for a crossing of the Mediterranean by boat, the plane was not yet a means of international transport very common. In search of a solution, he goes in the luxury hotel of the Istanbul station where he hoped that luck can give him a little boost. And, in fact, meeting in the grand salon of the hotel, his friend mr. Bianchi (mr. Blanchet in the French version, and monsieur Bouc in the novel) who is the director of the luxury line of Orient-Express, he gets through it a place in a car of the next train bound for Calais. Himself, the director of the line, will travel. The train takes off and begins the crossing of the first eastern european countries on the route. But a brutal murder occurs one night in one of the cabins of the train at the crossing of Yugoslavia : the businessman Samuel Ratchett is found in the morning in his bed stabbed to twelve strokes of a knife to the chest. During the same night a coule of snow unforeseen stopped the train in this region is also very mountainous. The sun is rising on a campaign totally deserted nearby, it has not fallen of new snow since the night before, and the state pristine coat of snow around the train shows that nobody is far away from the convoy. The culprit is probably still in the train. Moreover, the wait will have to last for very long hours prior to the arrival of the train snow plow service for the clearing of the way. The director of the line, which is the journey, then offers it to his friend Hercule Poirot to try and solve this murder as long as the train is locked, because when he leaves again, after the removal of the casting of snow he will have to defer to the yugoslav authorities, and it would be better for everyone that the guilty party is already unmasked in order to avoid a retention of travellers innocent by the yugoslavs. Then begins one of the most fascinating investigations in the history of the detective novel…
To properly understand the context in which the story starts, a preamble is required : 5 years earlier, the United States, the only girl of three years of a couple billionaire had been kidnapped by kidnappers and later found murdered after the surrender of a ransom colossal two hundred thousand dollars. The murder heinous, this child had led to other deaths. The father of the girl did not incur the death of his child and committed suicide with a bullet of pistol. The girl’s mother, pregnant at the time of collection, was quickly becoming depressed, losing both her daughter and her husband and had died in giving birth to a baby was born dead. Moreover, the murder had been followed by a court case very high profile, and nebula in which the young good wrongly accused had committed suicide, and then a man had been convicted and then executed on the electric chair in which had always proclaimed her innocence. All this preamble to the story is directly inspired by the case of the kidnapping of the child of aviator Charles Lindbergh.
Anecdotes
Agatha Christie, who attended the first, considers itself to be filled outside of one detail : it does not find the moustache of Hercule Poirot as beautiful as what she had imaginé1. It should also be noted a small difference between the original work and its adaptation : in the novel, the countess Andrenyi, too emotional, does not participate in the murder of Ratchett. The number of murderers is, thus, to the twelve, as the number of jurors of the courts of the anglo-saxons. In the film adaptation, that number jumps to thirteen, but striking twelve strokes only, the countess joined her hands with those of her husband, to bear a single blow common.
Albert Finney was 38 years old during the shooting of the film, and to take the role of Hercule Poirot, he has to undergo every day two hours of make-up complex designed to give the appearance of a man of over fifty years. The scenes inside the train are filmed on sets recreated, the scenes of the landscape showing the train from the outside are touring in France in the Doubs department of france on the line Pontarlier Gilley in the vicinity of the former railway station of Montbenoit, and the initial scene of the climb on the train to Istanbul is a tour of the workshops of the SNCF at Saint-Denis, near Paris. The restaurant of the train station of Istanbul is reconstituted in a large London hotel. Some plans are very short at the beginning of the film are shot in Istanbul from the asian shore of the Bosphorus.
Renaud Machart, music critic of France’s Music World, the music of Richard Rodney Bennett for the Crime of the Orient-Express is ” their signature sound, which is why he is known throughout the world “.
