The Classic Whodunit, Brought To The Twentieth Century. Adapted from the classic mystery by Agatha Christie, celebrated Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot (Alfred Molina) has just finished a case in Istanbul and is returning home to London onboard the luxurious Orient Express. The thrills of riding the famous train end abruptly when a wealthy man is discovered dead, from multiple stab wounds, in his compartment. At the same time, a rockslide blocks the tracks ahead and the train is stranded. No one has gotten on or off, which can only mean one thing: the killer is onboard, and it is up to Poirot to discover his or her identity.
