Hercule Poirot: Yellow Iris 1993

     Surprisingly, Hercule Poirot had one case that he was unable to solve.  He stopped in Buenos Aires on his way to visit Captain Hastings.   While dining, Iris Russell died of poisoning, it seemed to be suicide but her husband could not believe this to be true.  Poirot was set to investigate the case but was suddenly deported by the police.  Iris’ husband is hosting a dinner two years later on the anniversary of his wife’s death.  Everyone from the original dinner is invited to the opening of a new restaurant with the same name as the one in Buenos Aires.

     The same song is being sung during the dinner and there is a sudden surprise during this dinner too.  Will Hercule be given a second chance at solving this case or has this all gone too far?  4* (I really liked this movie)
