Art & HueAgatha Christie films in 4k!
This November, Studiocanal invites audiences to return to the glittering world of Agatha Christie’s classic films, newly restored in ravishing Ultra High Definition.
“Murder on the Orient Express”, “Death on the Nile”, “The Mirror Crack’d” and “Evil Under the Sun” have never looked so decadent, nor their suspects so sharply dressed.
Available to collect individually or altogether in a lavish box set, the four films now sparkle like cyanide-laced champagne in 4k Ultra High Definition.
Handily, many of them do – in Art & Hue’s stylish pop art prints celebrating these screen icons in bold colour and stylish design.
From the snow-dusted luxury of the Orient Express to the sun-baked terraces of the Mediterranean, these films shimmer with old-school allure – and now, with 4K restoration, every sequin, moustache, and murder weapon gleams anew. For collectors, the boxset includes a 64-page booklet, four newly designed posters, and enough extras to keep even Miss Marple busy well into tea time.
Whether it’s Ustinov’s twinkling Poirot, Lansbury’s sharp-eyed Marple, or Maggie Smith and Diana Rigg trading barbs with the crispness of an ice-cold martini, these are the films that defined a glamourous age of mystery. And if the suspects all look familiar, they might just be hanging on your wall already.
The Agatha Christie Collection arrives on 4K UHD & Blu-ray on the 24th of November from Studiocanal’s Vintage Classics, available to pre-order now via Amazon. A perfect excuse to dust off your magnifying glass, polish your pearls, and revisit the golden age of murder, in style.
