Evil Under the Sun

Hotelier Maggie Smith greets Peter Ustinov as detective Poirot, before the first evening's cocktail party, with Roddy McDowall, James Mason, Sylvia Miles, Jane Birkin and others but finally dominated by Diana Rigg, in the Agatha Christie mystery Evil Under The Sun, 1982.

A murder on the moors sets up the entrance of Peter Ustinov in his second outing as Agatha Christie's sleuth Hercule Poirot, Richard Vernon the bemused banker employing him, in director Guy Hamilton's all-star puzzler Evil Under The Sun, 1982.

Cole Porter music having been in the background, guests at Maggie Smith's Adriatic hotel (Sylvia Miles, James Mason, Roddy McDowall, Nicholas Clay, Jane Birkin et al, with Peter Ustinov as Hercule Poirot) get the full treatment from diva Diana Rigg, the credited vocalist, in the Agatha Christie whodunit Evil Under The Sun, 1982.
