Overview

George Pollock's 1965 adaptation of Agatha Christie's classic Ten Little Indians story has been given a fine treatment from Warner Home Video for its debut on DVD. Bonus include the original theatrical trailer as well as a whole collection of trailers for the studio's Miss Marple mysteries. As an added extra that might just be worth the money for the purchase is the fantastic "Whodunit Break" that once was cut into the film near its plot-twisting climax to give the audience one final guess as to the killer's identity. Presented with a widescreen 1.85:1 black-and-white anamorphic picture and Dolby Digital mono soundtrack, the film has benefited from a fine transfer that only rarely is plagued with shimmering color problems in its image.

Editorial Reviews

All Movie Guide - Brian J. Dillard
Dumbed down, wooden, and possessed of an ersatz "swinging '60s" feel, this Agatha Christie adaptation nevertheless remains watchable thanks to the old biddy's sturdy plot twists and the borderline camp appeal of the remarkably varied international cast. Although the source material has been leavened with premarital sex, gruesome murder scenes, and a Eurotrash setting, such second-stringers as Fabian and Shirley Eaton give the proceedings a TV-movie air, thereby saving director George Pollack from committing the worst sin of all: treating this patently silly tripe like a serious film. Shot in drab black-and-white, the movie looks like it was staged in a cavernous, leftover set from a glitzier spy thriller. Nevertheless, the pacing is brisk and the twists and turns engaging enough that 90 minutes go by rather painlessly. Christie's novel recieved a higher-concept treatment in René Clair's 1945 And Then There Were None.

    Confession: I love this movie

    I am probably biased by having watched this film many times since I was a child, but I continuously find "Ten Little Indians" a thoroughly enjoyable picture. It is a fascinating blend of Agatha Christie's original novel with some 1960s "updates," which by now are as historical as the source material. Overall, the acting is quite good, with Wilifred Hyde-White, Shirley Eaton, Stanley Holloway, and Hugh O'Brian providing a solid foundation. The plot is mostly untampered with from the original, except some additions to lead to a more optimistic ending (which Christie herself used when she converted it to a play). If you find yourself wanting to snuggle in for the evening, "Ten Little Indians" is a great choice.

    It was a shock

    The resitly watch the ''Ten Little Indians,'' in my Novles class and i did not enjoy it at all. I thought all the characters did not fit the actors. I mostly disliked the Judge. Wilfrid Hyde White played the Judge and he did not fit the character. He did not look scary or crazy. He looked like he could play Santa Clause. I was very disappointed in the movie. Everything had change. From the beginning to end, it was different. The characters, the atomsphere, the murders, and the ending had all changed. I liked the novle's rendention of things better than the movie. Overal, I did not like the movie because it ruin the book. The movie was not at all like the book. I was even more disappointed in the ending. It was a major disappointment after reading a great book.

    Curl up on the couch on a winter night and watch this one.

    This is a great movie to watch on a cold Winter night while you are piled up on the couch with your favorite blanket and a cup of hot chocolate. The most interesting and FUN part of this movie is the ending which let's you play along with the whodunnit game.
