Synopsis
Appointment with Death (1988) is an Agatha Christie mystery you can watch online on iFILM. Peter Ustinov returns as Hercule Poirot for the fourth time, this time at an archaeological dig in the Holy Land where a tyrannical widow turns up dead.
Emily Boynton rules her stepchildren through fear and blackmail, dragging the whole family on a trip across Europe and the Middle East. Out at the dig, someone kills her. Every one of them had a reason. Poirot picks the lies apart one by one. The suspects are played by a remarkable cast — Lauren Bacall, Carrie Fisher, John Gielgud, Piper Laurie and Hayley Mills.
Director Michael Winner stages the whodunit slowly, against bleached desert ruins instead of a country house. It was Ustinov's last outing as the Belgian detective: dry, unhurried, no chases or effects for their own sake. Good for anyone who likes old-fashioned British puzzles and beating the sleuth to the answer. Stream Appointment with Death (1988) online on iFILM.
