Add a CommentThis whodunit was better than I thought it would be.
"And then there were none...."
In this fast-paced (and fairly entertaining) "whodunnit" from 1965 - The characters in this one's story are, literally, dropping like flies (left, right, and centre).
Set at a remote castle atop a steep mountain cliff - (Where the game of death gets underway) - Everybody is suddenly under suspicion and the mad race to uncover the true identity of the mysterious "Mr. Owen" escalates the drama into a literal frenzy of false leads and erroneous accusations.
Based on Agatha Christie's 1939, mystery novel "And Then There Were None" - "Ten Little Indians" features an all-star cast headlined by Hugh O'Brian, Shirley Eaton, and (1960's pop idol) Fabian.
Good movie, great acting. Very suspenseful. I would recommend that you read the book first.
