At first glance, René Clair might seem an odd match for Agatha Christie's mystery thriller Ten Little Indians, but his buoyant touch is exactly what is missing from so many overly solemn remakes. Ten strangers gather for a mysterious gathering on a secluded island. It turns out to be a farewell party, for they all have been sentenced to die for crimes in their past by a self-appointed judge, jury, and executioner who may be one of them. One by one, the guests are systematically dispatched in the manner described in the lyrics of the children's rhyme "Ten Little Indians," while the survivors nervously eye one another, splintering into tenuous alliances until the next murder throws suspicion on someone new. The terrific cast of character actors has a ball with Dudley Nichols's witty script. The flamboyant sparring of Barry Fitzgerald (whose paternal Irish lilt takes a sinister dimension) and Walter Huston is almost upstaged by Roland Young's deadpan drollery. Romantic leads Louis Hayward and June Duprez come off as arch and stiff in august company that includes a sinisterly detached Judith Anderson, a dotty and distracted C. Aubrey Smith, and a hilariously flippant Mischa Auer. The story has been remade numerous times under the title of Christie's novel, Ten Little Indians, but never as well. Clair's effervescent, lively little gem is a fatal drawing-room comedy with a body count and a surreal mood of doom. --Sean Axmaker

PURE JUNK,THESE MOVIES ARE IN SUCH POOR SHAPE THAT YOU CAN'T WATCH THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-06-27

Poor sound and picture quality.......2005-10-14

I purchased this DVD for the movie "And Then There Were None." I loved the Agatha Christie novel and wanted to see the movie. However, the sound is so difficult to understand even at high volume that I had to give up watching it. I understand and enjoy most old movies even with poor picture quality; this was the poorest one I've seen. On picture quality alone I wouldn't say this is a problematic DVD, but because it seems impossible to understand, I'd have to recommend skipping this one and finding one with restored sound. The movie itself however is probably much better than two stars; the two stars are for sound and picture quality only.

A very good collection on one DVD.......2004-11-11

This is a single sided DVD which contains three mystery/suspense thrillers. 1)'And Then There Were None'; Barry Fitzgerald, Walter Huston, Louis Hayward; 97 minutes, B&W: Based on the Agatha Christie classic, a mysterious host invites ten guests to an old house by the sea. When the quests end up being killed off one by one, terror and suspicion run amuck. Who will be next, why are they being killed off, and who is the killer? 2)'Cry Panic'; John Forsythe, Earl Holliman, Anne Francis; 74 minutes, Color: Driving through a small town, a man accidentally hits a pedestrian and kills him. In trying to get assistance with the accident, the body disappears. No one in town, not even the sheriff, is willing to admit that anything happened. What secrets are they hiding and how far will they go to protect those secrets? 3)'The Bat'; Vincent Price, Agnes Moorehead; 79 minutes, B&W; In this old dark house mystery a killer has invaded the rented mansion of a mystery novelist and her guests. One by one, the guests are being killed off as the Bat flies. What is the motive of the Bat? Is there something hidden in the mansion? And, perhaps more sinister, who is the Bat? These are three very good suspense movies. 'And Then There Were None' is one of the best among mystery movies. The quality of the DVD is good. I have a 20" TV and they look as good if not better than VHS. Among the American Home Treasures triple feature DVDs, this is the best of what I have seen. The bonus material includes filmographies of the stars, biographies, and trivia. I have just given teasers based on the jacket descriptions. The premise of mystery movies is not to know what is going to happen so you can get caught up in the mystery.-Bob

Ten Little Indians [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg. 4 Import - Australia ]
Director: George Pollock
Manufacturer: Umbrella Entertainment
ProductGroup: DVD
Binding: DVD

Product Description

Australia released, PAL/Region 4 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada. Languages: English (Dolby Digital 2.0) Synopsis: 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.
