Best of the And Then There Were None Films?


Is this the best film ever made based on Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None? What about Clue or Murder By Death or Rene Clair's And Then There Were None?

in my eyes the 2015 BBC adaptation of ATTWN is the best of this novel, i think it catches the tone of the film better than all the other versions

I agree. The hanging scene is particularly effective.

To me, the 1965 version is a respectable but distant second to the 1945 original. The strengths come from the fact that most of the original 1945 script was retained and the fact that it has a good sense of mid-1960s "style" in the era of Bond movies etc. (which you can't help but think of because of Shirley Eaton's presence). The changed locale still works for the sense of isolation, and I also give high marks for the best confession scene of any I've seen done.
