- Orson Welles lays out the case for the prosecution of an all-star cast, including Adolfo Celi, Stéphane Audran, Richard Attenborough, Gert Fröbe, Herbert Lom, Elke Sommer and Oliver Reed.
If you look at the various camera angles of each perons face,as they have his or her crime announced, you will see the judge has a low shot. One that looks up at him. He is the only person shot from that angle. A subtle way of singling him out as the killer.
Craig Albrechtson Great observation, man!
LOL. Yes, he is.
Yeah, I would think that the low shot is supposed to symbolize him as the person being higher than the others, the mastermind manipulating them and quite literally, the judge who condemns them all.
@K.G You havent read the book then.
Damn well spotted sir!
Orson Welles' narration is what makes this sing.
couldn't be done so effectively by anyone else
To be honest I thought it was Joss Ackland when I first heard it!
@@isyourbackstillbad Joss Ackland is British and sounds absolutely nothing like this
@@kieransoregaard-utt8 just played it again. With those gravelly, honeyed tones It sounds even MORE like Joss Ackland to me now! I hadn't realised just how adept Orson Welles was at putting on a British accent.
@@isyourbackstillbad I repeat: joss ackland sounds nothing like this
The judge is looking at everyone
easy to work out who therefore is the killer
I love this version, I think I saw it when I was about 8 when it was on TV. The cheese factor is high and the soundtrack makes it.
why they changed the names and almost everything? this and the version from the sixties is far away from the book
They're not based on the book but the theatre play version, also written by Agatha Christie, and she made several changes.
@kriitikko These changes weren’t in the play either, so your point is moot.
@@giovannirastrelli9821 the ending is the same as the 1943 play, and some names were changed in the play too (general macarthur changed to mackenzie)
@@AesherYT Not quite the same. It uses the ending of the 1945 film, which changes the circumstances around Vera shooting Lombard, the revelation of his true identity, and how the killer is revealed.
2 James Bond villains in one
Not the best film of the story, but it was the first in color and had an all star cast. Bond fans may get a kick out of seeing Goldfinger and Largo together. It may also have inspired Neil Simon's parody Murder by Death (1976).
Great actors, but the 2015 miniseries is much better.
What's the Name of the song in the background?

I loved this until the music kicked in. It's so creepy then the music just kills it.
I've seen this movie dozens of times, but I'm only now noticing this. Watch Maria Rohm (Mrs. Martino, the cook, in the background over Vera's left shoulder) at 1:40, after the Voice accuses Lombard - she anticipates the recording by turning sharply toward Judge Cannon a split second before his name is mentioned.
Where have u seen it
@@Daniel_hAmIlToNMuSIcAl I have a copy
Love the music
I used to play this down the line for spam calls 🤓 I'll start doing it again now thanks for the upload. Classic film
Great film and fantastic musical backup
The picture and sound quality are great, when compared to similar videos on UA-cam! Thanks for sharing :)
Emile Largo, Auric Goldfinger, and the Phantom of the Paradise -- all in the same room!

Maria Gambrelli and Chief Inspector Dreyfus as well.
@@sigmaoctantis5083 wasn't that Herbert lom who played the Phantom of the Opera?
...and John Christie from 10 Rillington Place
Dickie gives the whole thing away by sneering at each of the guests in turn as their names are called out
I love this film
1945 version is available on youtube
.
But 1974 remake is not available.
In the 1974 version there are two actors who have played villain roles in 007 Bond films.
The 1974 version is here

I love this scene
+Sabrina Nathalie Yeah, me too!
and
I've always liked this particular version of the story (maybe because it's the first film adaptation that I saw). I certainly think it's better than the '65 and '89 versions.
+zbmc5 Same here. It's my favorite version.
I’m 16, and I love this book so much, that I finished reading And Then There Were None A WHOLE WEEK before all the kids in my class. I also was so interested on who U.N. Owen was, and who the true murderer is
SPOILER: It’s Wargrave.
Charles Az stole the show with his brief appearance.....his accent when reciting the 10 little indians rhyme was brilliant.
my beautiful isfahan😍😍😍this hotel and this film made in iran isfahan😍
Largo, Goldfinger, Oliver Reed AND the disembodied voice of Orson Welles?
How is Dr. Armstrong always the only one whose name doesn’t change
Great scene. But the music? Not so much.
Jarrod Lacy I really like the music
Jamie Buchan This music doesn't fit this scene at all. This is supposed to be a tense scene, but the music kills that mood. It's like playing the Benny Hill theme in Jaws when the shark is around.
"It's like playing the Benny Hill theme in Jaws when the shark is around."
Aaaaaaaaaand now I want to see that! :-D
@@domotormate They should have played the Jaws theme in Top Of The Pops when Jimmy Savile was around
2 bond villains in this movie
does any one have a copy of this version i would love to see it please upload
Teresa Allen you can buy it on amazon
Mr Largo and Goldfinger
Where can I get this full movie?
Is it on youtube?
I CAN'T FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET THIS MOVIE! SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!
How can i watch this movie
It is now!
I have it, perfectly clear dvd version@@jmac4966
This scene would be much better with a Different Score.
It really dates the film.
No it wouldn't, cant beat orson Wells voice
Very different from the book.
Goldfinger!
So so so wrong from the book
This entire adaption was absolutely absurd! Firstly, they moved the locale from an island (which was the original setting) to some Arabian Nights hotel in the Iranian desert that is situated next to ancient ruins! A large hotel with no phones, no motor car, and no radio! Are we to believe that an establishment as large as a hotel has no manner of communication? Also, who builds an extravagant hotel 200 miles from civilization with no forms of communication? Ridiculous!
Secondly, it was moved from its original setting in 1939 to contemporary times which literally kills the nostalgia and magic of the story.
Thirdly, they changed every characters name (safe for two persons) their character persona, and the history of their crimes.
Fourthly, they changed manners of death, and the poem (which some lines were changed) doesn’t align with how the characters are killed. The first character merely falls over dead (doesn’t choke his little self). The second ‘runs away’ but to where? They are 200 miles from anything! And is strangled after. The third one is supposed to ‘meet a pussycat’ and is merely stabbed (no cat is met or seen). The fourth one is supposed to be ‘finished by the chopper while chopping sticks) and runs away to escape into the desert and burns to death from the heat (that would have aligned better with the second death). The fifth one is ‘stung by a bee’ and is bitten by a poisonous snake. The sixth one ‘goes into chancery’ and is shot in the head (like in the novel) but is not dressed in the judicial robes or wig. The seventh one is ‘swallowed by a red herring’ which happens but he is simply laying on the ground dead with no evidence of how he was killed - he is simply dead! The eighth one is supposed to be ‘hugged by a bear’ and is pushed from a ledge to his death (no bear or anything is referenced in the manner of death). The ninth one ‘got frizzled up’ and is shot like in the novel and the last one is to ‘hang himself’ as in the novel but both actually survive (as they do in the play - NOT IN THE NOVEL). It is absolutely absurd that none of the deaths matched the stanzas of the rhyme.
Do not waste your time with the 1945 version, 1965 version, this version or the 1989 version (even though it does maintain the period of the piece, few name changes are made, and the manners of death align with the poem) but watch the 2015 BBC version. It is the best by far and follows the novel, for the most part, very faithfully - even the ending.
I like the 1945 and 1989 versions, but other film versions, like this (well, except for Charles Aznavour, may he rest in peace) are garbage. I do love 2015 miniseries, though. Especially the soundtrack is just splendid.
Mrs Martino 50 yards away from Lombard and the others and no one sees the Judge rope her...Yet some still suspect those three ???Who have alibied eachother.
@@simontruss3332 Exactly! The entire film is garbage. The only good thing I can say about it is the scenery and the beautiful interior of the hotel. But not even those things can save this sinking ship! Again, the 2015 BBC version is the most faithful. It stays completely devoted to the atmosphere, tone, characters, and time period that Christie envisioned and wrote of in the novel.
Your editing is brutal. The music was brutal.
