Death on the Nile (8/8) Movie Clip - Murder/Suicide of Simon and Jackie (1978)

I do not own the rights to this movie

[@agenttheater5]

The way Simon said Linnet...... I think that's basically the final proof that he actually couldn't stand her....in the book he found her bossy and controlling....

[@ronaldgiroux3307]

Almost as good as the book, excellent acting & cast! It can never be replicated!

[@narcissustarrazona5580]

The 1978 edition is still the best , the cast , the costume were all great , Angela Lansbury should be honored , or Maggie Smith ....

[@WDavid-bm9jd]

100% agree

[@ricardocantoral7672]

Nah man, the David Suchet TV adaptation blows this one of the water though I can this 1978 film for what it is.

[@77PacerStudios]

I remember seeing this movie when I was in 7th Grade!! Today (Saturday, March 9, 2024) marks the VERY FIRST TIME since my 7th Grade (which took place during the 2003-2004 school year) that I have EVER seen this movie!!

[@patriciafoster3347]

The casting in this! I hadn’t thought of it in a long time. Need to buy this movie!

[@charleslennonbaker]

Very hard to find on DVD in 'good' condition and forget about Blue-Ray or download. I got a DVD copy about five years ago and it was spot on.

[@juliendunand6409]

Peter Ustinov destroys Kenneth Branagh as Poirot.

[@mortalclown3812]

💯✨

[@MatthewDoel32]

Kenneth Branagh’s reading of the audio book is really, really well done though.

[@neneshubby]

Any good defense lawyer could’ve blown all sorts of holes in this story. They shouldn’t have said a word.

[@SamBz46]

well the book was written in the 30's there were no procedures rights.

[@marymoore8456]

Loved this flim & still do. It has a great cast & magnificent locations. Peter Ustinov was the best Proito, Meia Simon were brilliant also. It was a classic

[@centigradz2centigradz289]

The real star was Mia. I only knew her through her personal life. This was the only work of hers that I had watched. Angela and the other big wigs had nothing on Mia. Mia stole the show.

[@BrassBashers]

Whoever did the props and makeup to this scene is a fucking genius, I hope they get back to Hollywood because quality is lacking lately (with the surge of CGI)....

[@Unownshipper]

Ummm, this is from 1978 so sorry to say it but there's a good chance whoever did the props and makeup to this scene is dead.

[@BrassBashers]

@@Unownshipper true 😆

[@admetric]

This cast had the best love triangle. Mia Farrow is the best Jackie of them all. She captures the psychology of the chatacter the best. I listen to the audio book and I always see her as Jackie. Simon MacCorkindale captures the true Simon Doyle. He is aristocratic, goal orientated, and arrogant. Lois Chiles captures Linette the best. Only complaint is that Linette is a Blonde in the book. Can't have them all.

[@DjemoGraphic]

Mia Farrow was the best cast for Jackie

[@indramancini]

although i love the cinematography, the costume and the picture of 2022 versioin, but this one is simple and had more heartbreaking scene

[@michaelperovich6177]

Twisted version of Romeo & Juliet

[@luizcarlosmunhoz7580]

A ultima fala da personagem de Mia Farrow -"Monsieur Poirot" é seguida de um tiro em com ele o final de uma tragica e sombria estória de amor. MAGISTRAL!!!

[@tcgvids5071]

People say the ‘78 version is the best. So far I agree. But the new one is still coming! The new one looks equally as intriguing 😀

[@Unownshipper]

Meh... the new one proved to be kind of forgettable. Too much time focused on Branagh to focus on the other characters sufficiently, the pacing never really found its groove, and for a high production value period piece it was grossly unconcerned with historic authenticity making it feel hollow and artificial.

[@Jacqueline-pv4hw]

Amazing 😍 I love this film!!

[@rajinder2k4]

upon rewatching this as an adult i realized the love weren't real if it was she would have waited in prison or lived with him in poverty

[@agenttheater5]

She'd be happy with him living on less than he wanted, but it wasn't enough for him. When they could both see that Linnet was trying to steal Simon away from Jackie - apparently she was making it kind of obvious - Jackie actually suggested that he marry Linnet instead of her but he didn't want that because it'd be "hell" being married to her. Jackie did love him, just in a wrong way.

[@rajinder2k4]

@@agenttheater5 that's exactly what I'm saying, that that's the benchmark, that's the proof, that the thing we're referring to is love and not attachment or preference or compromise or the maximization of endorphins or promises or mutual comforting or stubbornness or anything else... There is no "wrong way" to love there is love or not love/something else.

[@earlemorgan5068]

How can you say that when this was a fictional movie. It was a good movie but how can you know the mind of someone who does not exist.

[@sebciot]

Actually they will get executed for murders at this time punishment for murder was execution it was left of in movie but in the book Piora say that executioner was quick and painless

[@luisalonso959]

@@sebciot Makes sense. They murdered 3 people

[@cybernautadventurer]

When Poirot mentioned the gunpowder test, was he just bluffing?

[@mtm4a]

Yeah - check out the final moments of the film when he is musing with David Niven before they disembark.

[@Unownshipper]

Checking for gunpowder is certainly real nowadays, but it wouldn't have been possible back in those days. The test he described is 100% bogus, the materials to check for the particles wouldn't have been available on a commercial riverboat, and simply washing your hands would've removed the powder which probably would've happened at least once over the course of the investigation.

[@nowakfrank4529]

Great Actors.

[@josephpage4303]

Bette Davis looks like a startled goose after Mia Farrow's suicide.

[@Chris-lc5ql]

Simon McCorkindale was absolutely gorgeous. Remakes are never as good as the originals- in my opinion. I find modern films in general too hammy.

[@mortalclown3812]

He reaaaallly was something to see. And hear. Rest in paradise, Simon.

Can't wait for 2020 theatrical version where gal gadot as the murder victim and Armie hammer as first killer and Rose Leslie or Emma Mackey as second killer

@@maxipaz5597 you're right because racial diversity in this movie

[@garyglaser4998]

@@maxipaz5597 This may be the original version but it's hardly a classic. I'd give it a B. Plenty of room for improvement.

[@rifqiadiono753]

I don't know it will worse or not but with Disney as executive distributor they will make this movie good

[@DrGregoryHouseIT]

Rose Leslie is the second victim.

[@BooBop1987]

My main problem with this scene of the movie! It wasn't tragic enough not like in the 2022 Version of Death of the Nile.

[@RahulSharma-so9gj]

Death on the nile 2020???

[@Aramanth]

👉Villains always forget they have the right to remain *SILENT!* They have right to a lawyer! In fact there is a lawyer in the room whom I am sure would love to negotiate with Linette's husband over her estate as a trade for getting them off the hook... but no... they just spill their guts!! LOL!!

[@peterk.6093]

Quite not like in the book.

[@amazingusername8925]

Don't people usually stop breathing after they've been shot in the head?

[@odilejones9129]

This scene may become depressing here but it is going to be gut wrenching in the 2020 remake Armie Hammer and Rose Leslie are going to leave more than a few tears in the audiences eyes.

[@trueblue6201]

Emma Mackey is playing Jacqueline not Rose Leslie according to the wikipedia.

[@trueblue6201]

@@lukasmiller486 Well they may tweak it this time around. Kenneth Branagh made changes for Murder on the Orient Express. In terms of tone one of the biggest changes was the reveal. For the older Murder on the orient it was played more as a credit to Poirot's genius. The new version was focused more on the tragedy of the murder and reveal. The film may be done like that as well.

[@ChinmayKashid]

It's even more depressing in the novel. Jackie's confession is handled more delicately by Agatha Christie. And the last smile she gave towards Poirot had a meaning in the novel. I seriously urge all of you to read the novel. She and Poirot had a special connection. It's more apparent in novel

[@mekajiki07]

@@ChinmayKashid yeah, Poirot remind Jackie in Curtain, too (the last Poirot s novel), when he talked with Hasting about there were 2 times he tried to prevent a murder, both failed, one in Egypt, one somewhre I dont remember.

See I watched this as a kid and wished at least the last scene would end in her blasting herself lol, damn they showed in 1978 didn't they?!?!?! Came here after watching the new one, it's a bit different from this and the book but is excellent. Like I said (spoilers!!!!!****) I wish the new one had ended with her popping him then doing herself, idk why I guess cause the actress in this original movie annoyed tf out of me LOL
