Customer Reviews: Average Rating:

Rating : - A must-see for Christie fans
People are all over the place in rating this film (for a myriad of reasons) so I'll try to pin that down first. While the film was beautifully produced, bulging with a fine cast, it did not do all that well when it was released. Someone mentioned this reality already and they are correct in their facts on that point. I first saw "Agatha" either on HBO or Cinemax in the early days of those cable premium channels. In the end, it IS a really good film with an interesting story to relate.

In 1926, famed mystery writer Agatha Christie really DID disappear for better than a week. In real life, (and in the movie), she was experiencing major domestic problems, prior to her divorce from Colonel Christie, and it's my belief that this is the simple basis for her disappearance; however, numerous conspiracy theories have blossomed and psychologists' opinions of the matter have spurred on this sort of alternative scenario thinking. Certain conspiracy accounts may in fact be true, or possibly not -- I seriously doubt that we'll ever know all the facts. Christie later said that she couldn't account for the lost time and some psychologists have stated that she was in a "fugue state" for the period in question.

In any case, the movie is essentially all about what happened to Christie for those 11 mysterious days and nights. The movie provides probably the most popular account of that turbulent window of time in Christie's life.

A chief feature of the movie focuses on an American reporter (played by Dustin Hoffman) who tracks Christie down at a health resort. That 'location' takes up 2/3 of the film.

I'm astounded that this film is apparently not yet available on DVD and when it is finally released on disc, I HOPE that it's conveyed in letterbox format which would greatly enhance the already super cinematography. It's a fine film, albeit it probably has a limited interested viewership. Any Christie fan would give it 5 stars.

So, if you're interested in topics such as the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, and/or the loss of Amelia Earhart over the Pacific, then you'll probably much savour this movie too. I liked it a lot.
