George Pollock’s adaptation of Agatha Christie’s murder mystery, in which the acceptance of a free holiday proves terminally unwise. Eight strangers are brought together when they take up an invitation to stay at a remote, snowbound chalet. On arrival they are greeted by a married couple (Marianne Hoppe and Mario Adorf), who have been hired to cater for the guests. But as soon as all are gathered together, they hear a recording made by their host (Christopher Lee), who explains why they are there – and why none of them is likely to leave alive… With Hugh O’Brian, Shirley Eaton, Leo Genn, Dennis Price, Wilfrid Hyde-White, Stanley Holloway, Daliah Lavi and Fabian. Edited for language and violence., 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.
