The hilarity never stops in this award-winning slapstick farce in its knockabout quest to answer the age-old question: how can any man (especially Francis) serve two masters, without either of them finding out about the other; pursue and win the girl he fancies; and somehow get a decent meal in the process?

Eight suspects, one thrilling ride! Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the luxurious Orient Express dead in its tracks. By morning, an American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside.

Ken Ludwig's adaptation infuses Agatha Christie's classic whodunit with high-energy glamour, mounting suspense, and a healthy dose of humor.
