This list of Agatha Christie Foreign Movie Adaptations contains every one we’ve found as of April 15, 2024. This is a work in progress, and occasionally you’ll see some of my notes. FOUND means, of course, that I have a copy. NOT FOUND means I haven’t.
While I can find some movies online, they have to have English subtitles and be readily available for streaming or purchase by readers to be useful for the Agatha Christie movie project. If they can only be found on pirate sites, we’d rather not include them.
The text below may sound rough, because it’s my working notes on the project.
If you know of any we’ve missed, please let us know! Email peschel at the name of this website.
