While at first glance a traditional murder mystery, the resolution of this movie is one of few in the annals of fictional crime that does not utilize an established motive of the genre (i.e. greed, blackmail, revenge, crime of passion) to justify the killing. Rather, Agatha Christie employs grief as the chief motive, an element that not only distracts audiences from guessing the solution, but also lends the story an unexpectedly emotional punch lacking in most mysteries. It is telling that, of the 73 novels Christie penned, this is the only one in which her detective was sufficiently moved by the motive that he did not bring the killer(s) to justice.
