A Haunting in Venice + rain

"The rain obviously was very atmospheric and for my taste I would have had thunderclaps all over the place! But Ken [Branagh] was keen not to overdo those tropes. And hopefully we found the sweet spot of having some fun but without overdoing it. But again, it all leads into this: the house has been there longer than the humans that are currently inhabiting it. The weather itself is subsuming the house and the house is sinking. It's rotting, it's leaking, it's groaning. The electrics are dodgy. You have the feeling that anything you touch might be the last thing you ever do. Just to give it that jagged, dangerous feeling of hum, of atmosphere, of the danger that they're cut off from the outside world and reason." - Lucy Donaldson, the editor of A Hauting in Venice (Art of the Cut interview, September 21 2023)

A HAUNTING IN VENICE (2023)

"Every murderer is probably somebody's old friend," observed Poirot philosophically. "You cannot mix up sentiment and reason." - Agatha Christie, The Mysterious Affair at Styles

Ariadne Oliver and Hercule Poirot, detective duo

Mrs Oliver is detective novelist and Poirot's friend. She accompanies Poirot on several of his most famous cases, providing her own unique perspective on each of the crimes they encounter. She is feisty, quick to jump to conclusions (sometimes right, sometimes wrong), and strongly believes that Scotland Yard would be better run by a woman. Ariadne Oliver is, in many ways, a vehicle for Agatha Christie's own voice, particularly in relation to writing and the public. In a 1956 interview with John Bull magazine, Agatha Christie dismissed the idea that any of her characters are truly derived from real life, although she did admit that Mrs Oliver has "a strong dash" of herself. Christie always took a somewhat tongue in cheek approach to her supposed fictional alter ego, who she credited with writing a novel called The Body in the Library, a title she would use herself in 1942.

"Yes, I shall be at home all this evening. Does that mean that I may have the pleasure of a visit from you?" "It's very nice of you to put it that way," said Mrs. Oliver. "I don't know that it will be such a pleasure." "It is always a pleasure to see you, chère Madame." - Agatha Christie, Elephants Can Remember

A HAUNTING IN VENICE (In theaters September 25 2023)

"Murder on the Orient Express dealt with revenge. Death on the Nile dealt with greed. This film is about whether there is anything beyond us - a ghost, a God - and whether Poirot believes in it. It involves him and us being scared." - Kenneth Branagh, Haunting Mystery clip (Aug 15 2023)

"If Ken [Branagh] wants to do more, and Michael [Green, screenwriter] wants to write more, we'll certainly do another. There's a lot of material still to go, so we're not going to run out of inspiration." - James Prichard, Agatha Christie's great-grandson and A Haunting in Venice's executive producer on a possible 4th Poirot film (TOTAL FILM Sept 2023 issue)

A Haunting in Venice (2023), dir. Kenneth Branagh

Poirot had been wondering, while eating his dinner, what it was that was driving Mrs. Oliver to visit him, and why she was so doubtful about what she was doing. Was she bringing him some difficult problem, or was she acquanting him with a crime? As Poirot knew well, it could be anything with Mrs. Oliver. The most commonplace things or the most extraordinary things. They were, as you might say, all alike to her. She was worried, he thought. Ah well, Hercule Poirot thought to himself, he could deal with Mrs. Oliver. He always had been able to deal with Mrs. Oliver. On occasion she maddened him. At the same time he was really very much attached to her. They had shared many experiences and experiments together. - Agatha Christie, Elephants Can Remember
