ROSALIE "My mother is SALOME OTTERBOURNE, the novelist" JACKIE {drunkenly] "SALOME?!? Didn't she have some fella's head cut off?" ROSALIE [PANICS VISIBLY] "WHO TOLD YOU?! WE BURIED THAT BODY IN LUCERNE!" [realizes what she means] "Oh...you mean from The Bible?&quo...

ONE OTHER FUN THING they could have done in the disembarking scene at the end of DEATH ON THE NILE would have been to have POIROT and RACE inform ROSALIE OTTERBOURNE that she has AN AIRTIGHT WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM against THE ESTATE OF SIMON DOYLE which could well result in her becoming the prime bene...

also, I hate to speculate, but FANTASTIC AS SHE IS, I get the sense the role came very naturally to LANSBURY and she had A BLAST doing it- the 1970s were kind of the beginning of the whole "you need to suffer and be miserable and lose or gain 60 pounds in order to get a nomination" trend ...

Also, the name ROSALIE is surprisingly lovely and tasteful, I wonder if MR OTTERBOURNE talked SALOME out of naming her God only knows what... Eros? Phylandrea? Trellis? Vanity? Clytemenstra? Amaryllis? Apple? would love to have seen her list. LOL! Apparently sanity prevailed. I have a cousin named ...

I'll shut up about DEATH ON THE NILE after this (and SPOILERS hereafter) But if I could change ONE THING about the film, it would be to rewrite the scene where OLIVIA HUSSEY finds out that her MOTHER has been shot- as it is it's a tight two shot with her and JON FINCH and she underplays it criminall...

I WILL ALSO THROW OUT THAT I LOVE THE CORAL COLORED GOWN WORN BY OLIVIA HUSSEY SO DAMN MUCH, IT IS SERIOUSLY THE ESSENCE OF TIMELESS CHIC, CONGRATULATIONS TO ANYONE FOR LOOKING THIS GOOD AT ANY TIME DURING THE 1970S. YOU COULD PUT ON EITHER ONE OF THESE GOWNS TODAY AND PROVIDED THE FIT WAS RIGHT, YO...

also, I have to GRIPE that searching for IMAGES or DELETED SCENES for DEATH ON THE NILE 1978 on most SEARCH ENGINES clogs my results with images from the unfortunate (RECENT) remake which I would rather not discuss because, believe it or not, but I'm trying to be less of a b!tch, at least for the mo...

apologies for the watermarks (especially on the last one!!!!!) but I just HAD to share these images of ANGELA LANSBURY filming DEATH ON THE NILE: https://th.bing.com/th/id/OIP.0SC9AhE-WgRrq9qUkd5pTgHaH8?rs=1&pid=ImgDetMain https://th.bing.com/th/id/OIP.NQA5-D0F9DqBabwX9ioSxwHaMa?rs=1&pid=Im...

CNN's How It Really Happened: Oscar Pistorious "My lady, it was an accident" Sure. Right. Four "accidental" gunshots . . . Apparently that's just how you ask someone if the loo is occupied in South Africa. It's a (slightly) different culture than here in the US (barring Texas.)

I recall that in the PBS version of Nile, the Lois Chiles first victim part was played by a then-unknown Emily Blunt, two years before she made a name for herself in The Devil Wears Prada, and that the Bette Davis role was played by Judy Parfitt, who was very memorable in Dolores Claiborne. AND WHA...

I may very well make some people angry by saying this, but I’m not 100% sold on David Suchet being that good an actor. But a lot of people love him, and physically he does resemble the character the most I rather like him in the part, but it is true that otherwise he hasn't been seen in much that a...

I REMEMBER ELLIOT GOULD being terrible in another POIROT EPISODE.
I think DAVID SOUL is also terrible though.
So I guess I crossed the two in my mind
