Culture clash and multiple language barriers are an essential thread of the story's fabric; indeed, Poirot states at the outset his fascination with "a group of strangers from different backgrounds brought together by fate, their destinies controlled by the train's engine." The ethnic authenticity that pervades this movie is a testament to the extraordinary actors and actresses, many of whom were portraying nationalities far removed from their own: Of the Brits, Albert Finney played a Belgian, Michael York a Hungarian, Jacqueline Bisset an American masquerading as a Hungarian, Wendy Hiller a Russian, Rachel Roberts a German, Denis Quilley an Italian, and George Coulouris a Greek, while Irishman Colin Blakely appeared as an American, and American Martin Balsam portrayed an Italian. Lauren Bacall, Ingrid Bergman, Jean Pierre Cassel, Sir Sean Connery, Sir John Gielgud, Anthony Perkins, Vanessa Redgrave, and Richard Widmark were less taxed, as they all played their own ethnicities in this movie.
