Trivia
Burgh Island, South Devon is one of the filming locations. The island is associated with writer Agatha Christie, who often visited and used the location as inspiration for at least two novels: And Then There Were None (1939) and Evil Under the Sun (1941). Previous Christie stories filmed there include: Agatha Christie's Miss Marple: Nemesis (1987) and Evil Under the Sun (2001).

Goofs
Matthew Rhys' detective is shown smoking filter cigarettes which did not become commonplace until the late 1950s, but this is set in the 1930s.

90 Minutes Would've Been Suffice...

First the good news: wardrobe and locations are exquisite. The actors are very good, especially Anjelica Huston as the matriarch of a despicable family. Now for the bad stuff: why oh why add absolutely unnecessary characters into one of the finest plots Agatha Christie ever wrote. The dialogues are stilted and absolutely boring. The language, contrary to the setting, is much too modern and sometimes very crude. For the life of me, I don't understand the importance of a cunnilingus scene on the stairs. It just makes no sense. And last, but not least: it's way too long. The whole story could've been told in 90 minutes, it's much too thin for three hours.

Why do the writers always take a perfectly crafted plot from the queen of suspense and trample it to death?
