Ten Little Indians

Ten people -- eight strangers and two married domestics -- attend a posh weekend at a remote castle. What's the occasion? Each has unwittingly been invited to his/her own murder. Who's behind this dastardly plot? You'll have a devilishly tense time figuring it out while watching this clever Agatha Christie adaptation. Ten Little Indians refers to the ten invitees, the familiar nursery rhyme and the figurines affixed to a serving plate at the castle. After the fatal poisoning of a guest, one figurine goes eerily missing. One down. Nine to go. Who's next? That's a fate Hugh O'Brian (TV's Wyatt Earp), British screen veterans Leo Genn, Wilfrid Hyde-White and Stanley Holloway, and Goldfinger girl Shirley Eaton desperately hope to avoid.
