1:46:00
If all these people are not
implicated in the crime,
1:46:03
then why have they all told me,
under interrogation,
1:46:06
stupid and often unnecessary lies?
1:46:07
Why? Why? Why? Why?
1:46:09
Doubtless, Monsieur Poirot,
because they did not expect you
1:46:11
to be on the train. They had no
time to concert their cover story.
1:46:16
I was hoping someone
other than myself would say that.
1:46:23
Ladies and gentlemen,
1:46:25
we now come
to my own reconstruction
1:46:28
of the night of the murder...
1:46:36
...or the night of the red herrings.
1:46:41
I only wish...
1:46:51
I only wish I could describe it...
1:46:57
...with the incomparable panache...
1:47:00
...the consummate verve,
1:47:02
the enthralling cadences,
the delicate gestures,
1:47:06
the evocative expressions of
America's greatest tragic actress,
1:47:09
Harriet Belinda.
1:47:12
Miss Linda Arden.
1:47:15
I've always heard she wanted
to play comedy parts,
1:47:18
but her husband
wouldn't have it.
1:47:19
Which husband?
Your second husband, Mr. Hubbard?
1:47:20
Which husband?
Your second husband, Mr. Hubbard?
1:47:24
Or your first husband,
1:47:26
Mr. Grunwald?
1:47:28
Linda Arden, the actress,
never played as difficult a role
1:47:32
as Mrs. Hubbard, the organizer
of this extraordinary revenge.
1:47:40
Dare I deduce that the great
Linda Arden has been cured
1:47:43
of her incurable disease
and is no longer bedridden?
1:47:48
It is I who should be committed
to a bed in a mental home.
1:47:51
It is I who need a cure
for being so slow
1:47:54
to notice the tricks
that were being played on me
1:47:57
with regard to the time
of the murder.
