Welcome to another edition of Books to Movies.
Recently, I finished Death on the Nile, both the book by Agatha Christi and the movie directed by Kenneth Branagh. They were both wonderful stories, each in their own way.
I love Agatha Christi, although her writing style is more old fashioned than I usually like, her stories are so in depth and creative. Her books make for a wonderful story. If only she had known how well they would translate into a movie.
My Book Rating: ★★★★☆
Death on the Nile
(Hercule Poirot #19)
by
Following the success of Murder on the Orient Express, Kenneth Branagh returns to direct and star in this adaptation of the classic Hercule Poirot mystery for the big screen, also starring Gal Gadot.
Beloved detective Hercule Poirot embarks on a journey to Egypt in one of Agatha Christie’s most famous mysteries, Death on the Nile.
The tranquility of a cruise along the Nile was shattered by the discovery that Linnet Ridgeway had been shot through the head. She was young, stylish, and beautiful. A girl who had everything . . . until she lost her life.
Hercule Poirot recalled an earlier outburst by a fellow passenger: "I'd like to put my dear little pistol against her head and just press the trigger." Yet in this exotic setting nothing is ever quite what it seems.
My Movie Rating: ★★★★☆
