She felt differently about the 1974 film ''Murder on the Orient Express'', directed by Sidney Lumet, which featured major stars and high production values; her attendance at the London premiere was one of her last public outings.{{Rp|476, 482}}{{Rp|57}} In 2016, a new film version was released, directed by Kenneth Branagh, who also starred, wearing "the most extravagant mustache moviegoers have ever seen".

Sidney Lumet American film director, producer and screenwriter
In the belief that Lumet's "compelling stories and unforgettable performances were his strong suit," director and producer Steven Spielberg described Lumet as "one of the greatest directors in the long history of film." Al Pacino, upon hearing of Lumet's death, stated that with his films, "he leaves a great legacy, but more than that, to the people close to him, he will remain the most civilized of humans and the kindest man I have ever known." '' Boston Herald'' writer James Verniere observes that "at a time when the American film industry is intent on seeing how low it can go, Sidney Lumet remains a master of the morally complex American drama." Following his death, fellow New York directors Woody Allen and Martin Scorsese both paid tribute to Lumet.

Martin Scorsese American filmmaker
(In the 1988 version, these roles were played by Willem Dafoe and David Bowie respectively.) However, following his mid-1980s flirtation with commercial Hollywood, Scorsese made a major return to personal filmmaking with the project; Universal Pictures agreed to finance the film as Scorsese agreed to make a more mainstream film for the studio in the future (it eventually resulted in '' Cape Fear'').

Willem Dafoe
He played an eccentric, gay FBI agent assigned with investigating a series of murders committed by the MacManus twins (played by Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus) who are acting as vigilantes in Boston, Massachusetts after an act of self-defense. '' The Boondock Saints'' was negatively received by film critics, largely for its extreme violence and lack of emotional depth, though some critics praised Dafoe's role in the film.

Christie had long been a fan of detective novels, having enjoyed Wilkie Collins's '' The Woman in White'' and ''The Moonstone'', and Arthur Conan Doyle's early Sherlock Holmes stories.

Sherlock Holmes
The series was co-directed by Hayao Miyazaki. Between 1979 and 1986, the Soviet studio Lenfilm produced a series of five television films, ''The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson''.

Hayao Miyazaki Japanese animator, film director, and mangaka
Miyazaki has frequently been cited as an inspiration to numerous animators, directors and writers around the world, including Wes Anderson, James Cameron, Dean DeBlois, Guillermo del Toro, Pete Docter, Mamoru Hosoda, Bong Joon-Ho, Glen Keane, Travis Knight, John Lasseter, Nick Park, Henry Selick, Makoto Shinkai, and Steven Spielberg. Keane said Miyazaki is a "huge influence" on Walt Disney Animation Studios and has been "part of our heritage" ever since '' The Rescuers Down Under'' (1990). The Disney Renaissance era was also prompted by competition with the development of Miyazaki's films. Artists from Pixar and Aardman Studios signed a tribute stating, "You're our inspiration, Miyazaki-san!" He has also been cited as inspiration for video game designers including Shigeru Miyamoto and Hironobu Sakaguchi, as well as the television series ''Avatar: The Last Airbender'', and the video game '' Ori and the Blind Forest'' (2015).
