Peter Ustinov began his long association with the Hercule Poirot character of murder mystery novelist Agatha Christie with this lavish but financially disappointing follow-up to the popular Murder on the Orient Express (1974). During a luxurious pleasure cruise down the Nile aboard a lavish vessel populated with wealthy passengers, widely despised heiress and home wrecker Linnet Ridgeway ( Lois Chiles ) is murdered. Also aboard is famed Belgian detective Poirot (Ustinov) and his taciturn traveling companion, Colonel Race ( David Niven ). Poirot undertakes an investigation into Ridgeway's killing. Among the colorful suspects are Salome ( Angela Lansbury ) and Rosalie Otterbourne ( Olivia Hussey ), Doctor Bessner ( Jack Warden ), Mrs. Van Schuyler ( Bette Davis ), Miss Bowers ( Maggie Smith ), and Jacqueline De Bellefort ( Mia Farrow ). As more bodies pile up, however, it appears that nearly everyone aboard has a motive. The script for Death on the Nile (1978) was adapted by Anthony Shaffer , the writer of Sleuth (1972) and the identical twin brother of Amadeus (1984) author Peter Shaffer . — Karl Williams
