Adapted from Agatha Christie's celebrated mysteries, each film features beautiful settings and an impeccable cast.
Now, for the first time, twelve of Suchet's feature-length Poirot mysteries are available together in this collector's set. Produced by Brian Eastman (Traffik, Jeeves & Wooster), these exquisitely crafted tales of death and deception were filmed on location around the world, and features enough murder and mystery to test the mettle of our inimitably beloved Belgian sleuth.

DEATH ON THE NILE: A pleasure cruise down the Nile turns deadly when a murder is discovered on board. Thank goodness Poirot is along for the ride. SAD CYPRESS: The solution to a double-murder case appears to be cut and dry, but Poirot's impeccable instincts eventually lead him to the real truth. THE HOLLOW: A weekend retreat where all the guests appear to despise one another finds Poirot hard at work doing what he does best. FIVE LITTLE PIGS: Poirot agrees to help a young woman prove her mother's innocence, 14 years after being sent to the gallows.

Poirot does it again!Sep 06, 2010 This collection of Poirot is very entertaining in every way. The acting is great, the stories are full of suspense and the format is excellent. That means that you don't have to watch the titles over and over. Bravo to the team that produced this high quality entertainment.
Movie collectionAug 23, 2010 Great episodes, including some I had never seen; just had read the books. David Suchet is Hercule Poirot.

Why old TV format?Aug 08, 2010 The film making, adapted stories, and of course David Suchet are great. But why does A&E put these out in the old 4:3 TV format when the originals were filmed in widescreen 16:9?

HELP! PleaseJul 28, 2010 I bought the Poirot Definintive Collection for my husband for his birthday. NOW I want to buy more, Can someone tell me WHICH Collections are are best ones to buy. I am sooo confused with the selections. I understand that the A&E are different from the Acorn, then there are the movies. What do I buy next? HELP!!! Bibi
I don't want to repeat. Thanks for any help ,
Combnes all the A&E Poirot movies into oneJul 21, 2010 Twelve movie length features in one keepcase. Keepcase has two discs on each side of a sturdy plastic sleeve. Less than ideal, but good for those with little room. Buy the sets of 4 movies at a time if you want the individual keep cases. Otherwise an excellent set. Too bad the sets are so confusingly labeled.Poirot is so good, and David Suchet is such a master actor, that you will want to own them all. Give your duplicates to the uninitiated and give them a treat.
