Rating: Summary: The Dumb Witness leaves you speechless! Review: What a piece of art! A true treat to the eyes and the mind. The sets, acting, effects, all this and more, score a 101 out of 100! The story in a nutshell: Old Ms. Arundell's younger relations are after her money. She, a lady with a strong will, lets not a penny go and can see beyond the facade of caring that her relations are putting up. Soon, she suffers in an 'accident', as everyone called it- an 'accident' which occured due to tripping over Bob, the dumb witness' ball. Yes, you guessed it, soon she's dead. Poirot starts his hunt, with Hastings andf Bob, the fox terrier on his side (Bob, too, outwits Hastings at times!). Soon, as Poirot said in the movie, 'the fox is caught, and the terror put on him' (well, atleast he said something like this!). Now for the movie itself: Littlegreen house has been shown very aptly. The supernatural aspect of the story (of the seance and the green smoke) has been displayed brilliantly. The plot has been acted out clearly. Bob, though not instantly attractive, is sure to win your heart gradually. Poirot's conversations with Bob, and the deductions he draws from his actions, are very pleasing to watch. What can one say about David Suchet as Poirot? He is, as most have already said, 'the Best Poirot EVER'!! In fact, one can even say that David Suchet IS Hercule Poirot! Superb in every way, Suchet is an absolute pleasure to watch. Hughes Fraser was perfect as Hastings, as usual! Altogether, Dumb Witness surpasses all expectations! Au revoir!
