Audio problem: During the dinner scene when Poirot finds an eel in his plate, the quartet plays a song in perfect classical music, but they are using instruments typical of the local folklore. A rebec does not sound like a violin. (01:42:55)
Death on the Nile (1978)
1 audio problem
Directed by: John Guillermin
Starring: Peter Ustinov, Bette Davis, Mia Farrow, Lois Chiles, Jane Birkin, Simon MacCorkindale
Visible crew/equipment: In the scene near the start of the movie when Lois Chiles is showing Mia Farrow her bathroom and Mia Farrow is saying "Yes, It's lovely," on the mirror on the right you can see a member of the crew crawling around on his hands and knees. This is visible on the DVD as well as at the cinema. (00:05:50)
Mrs. Van Schuyler: You need a nice cool holiday, I was thinking of a trip along the Gobi Desert.
Trivia: The cast were told they could not have their own dressing rooms so Angela Lansbury, Maggie Smith and Bette Davis all shared a room.
