Poirot kohtaa ystävänsä Hastingsin samassa paikassa, jossa he tapasivat ensimmäisen kerran. Poirot’lla on reuma ja sydänvaivoja, mutta hänen aivonsa ovat yhtä terävät kuin aina. Hän uskoo, että Stylesin kartanossa on murhaaja. (C More Fin.)

It comes slowly and creepily sadly with the detective, who is trapped in a wheelchair with his gray cells. After about an hour, waiting for sentiment and tears, the biggest twist in 25 years and one of Suchet's best acting etudes (shots in the dark) will come. Nordic whispered colors, a perfect touch for framing, an excellent villain - simply amounting to precisely dealt cards. This is not a safe episode for the older generation, but rather a moral dilemma overcoming Philip Martin's famous Orient Express. The great "broken" composition of the second half hides THE little sentiment in a cute cup at the last possible moment, when the curtain almost touches the stage. They were good days. They have been good days. Until the end. It is an intoxicating feeling when an aged companion leaves life with dignity, without self-pity, and at the same time leaves you feeling that you did not know him as much as you thought until the last moment.

A perfect farewell to a perfect detective. I was really looking forward to this finale, I knew roughly what to expect from it, and it still surprised me more than once with how great it was.

I never really watched Poirot much, but the books captivated me, so I decided to give Suchet a chance. What I missed on TV so many times when it was aired, I'll catch up on now. I started with the last episode, which shows how much the character had already been developed and defined, and how well some TV productions can be made. The film turned out very well and is a beautiful farewell to a beloved character portrayed by its quintessential actor.
