Editorial Reviews

The third of many film and TV adaptations of the popular Agatha Christie novel And Then There Were None (Ten Little Indians is the title of the American edition, the hit play, and most of the movies), this 1965 version moves the action from a remote island to an isolated ski resort and otherwise rearranges the plot. The basic premise, however, remains the same. Ten strangers, eight of them guests and two of them servants, are lured to a dinner party and then trapped there to be killed one at a time by an unseen host who wishes to punish them for their disparate perceived crimes. The old nursery rhyme provides both the framing device, and, in the source material, the method of execution for each victim. In this version, however, the revised murder scenes include a hapless servant (Marianne Hoppe) falling to her death from a booby-trapped ski lift. Ten Little Indians features a varied cast that ranges from future Bond girls Shirley Eaton and Daliah Lavi to former teen idol Fabian and former Wyatt Earp TV star Hugh O'Brian. It also reunites My Fair Lady co-stars Stanley Holloway and Wilfrid Hyde-White. The film was the final directorial effort of George Pollock, who had previously helmed several adaptations of Christie's popular Miss Marple mysteries, starting with 1962's Murder, She Said. Christopher Lee makes an uncredited appearance as the recorded voice of absentee host/villain Mr. Owen. Despite its mountain setting, the picture was filmed in Ireland. Brian J.

Confession: I love this movieby HerculePoirot

June 30, 2009: I am probably biased by having watched this film many times since I was a child, but I continuously find "Ten Little Indians" a thoroughly enjoyable picture. It is a fascinating blend of Agatha Christie's original novel with some 1960s "updates," which by now are as historical as the source material. Overall, the acting is quite good, with Wilifred Hyde-White, Shirley Eaton, Stanley Holloway, and Hugh O'Brian providing a solid foundation. The plot is mostly untampered with from the original, except some additions to lead to a more optimistic ending (which Christie herself used when she converted it to a play). If you find yourself wanting to snuggle in for the evening, "Ten Little Indians" is a great choice.

I Also Recommend: Death on the Nile, Poirot: The ABC Murders.

March 20, 2003: The resitly watch the ''Ten Little Indians,'' in my Novles class and i did not enjoy it at all. I thought all the characters did not fit the actors. I mostly disliked the Judge. Wilfrid Hyde White played the Judge and he did not fit the character. He did not look scary or crazy. He looked like he could play Santa Clause. I was very disappointed in the movie. Everything had change. From the beginning to end, it was different. The characters, the atomsphere, the murders, and the ending had all changed. I liked the novle's rendention of things better than the movie. Overal, I did not like the movie because it ruin the book. The movie was not at all like the book. I was even more disappointed in the ending. It was a major disappointment after reading a great book.
