And Then There Were None on DVD

This film adaptation of Agatha Christie's best selling novel, involves eight strangers who are invited to a desolate island off the coast of Devon, England. The eight strangers settle in at a mansion tended by two newly hired servants, Thomas and Ethel Rogers. When the eight strangers gather for dinner expecting to meet their hosts, Mr. And Mrs. Owen, it becomes clear that they have been summoned to atone for their past sins. The guests partake of their dinner and notice a centerpiece of ten figurines of Indians in a circle. Thomas puts a record on the gramophone, from which a voice accuses them all of murder. As the story unfolds each are murdered just like the 'Ten Little Indians' in the children's nursery rhyme. There is no one else on the island so the killer has to be one of the guests or servants. A fascinating murder mystery with a nice touch of dark humor. (93 minutes - 1945 - Black & White - 4:3).
