Loved the Venice setting, acting, direction and photography. Rather a sombre setting which felt just right considering the 2nd world war was recently ended and rationing was still ongoing. Military personnel and civilians had to readjust mentally to life so it seemed highly likely Poirot needed to as well so moving to Italy and not communicating with people made sense to me. I do hope we get more films and the mood will change again. Brilliant reinterpretation in my opinion
