Auction History Result 2s439 AND THEN THERE WERE NONE Danish '50 Walter Huston, Agatha Christie, Rene Clair! Date Sold 10/28/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1950 (from the first release of this movie in Denmark) Vintage Theatrical Folded Danish Movie Poster (measures 24 1/2" x 33 1/2" [62 x 85 cm]) (Learn More) Rene Clair's And Then There Were None, the 1945 Rene Clair crime murder mystery thriller ("From the story by Agatha Christie", where ten people are invited to a desert island, and one by one, they are killed) starring Barry Fitzgerald, Walter Huston, Louis Hayward, Roland Young, June Duprez, Sir C. Aubrey Smith, Mischa Auer, Judith Anderson, Richard Haydn, Queenie Leonard, and Harry Thurston. Note that this book was originally published in 1939 as "Ten Little Niggers", taken from the nursery rhyme that had been written many years before. That title was already offensive in the U.S., and the title was changed to "And Then There Were None" for the U.S. publication, and for the 1945 film version that followed (that is the final line of the nursery rhyme). In England, the book title was later changed to "Ten Little Indians", and in 1965, an English remake was given that title, as were several other remakes. Ironically, the name "Ten Little Indians" is now itself "politically incorrect", so that name also is no longer used. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
