Appointment with Death
|
Appointment with Death is a 1988 screen adaptation of Agatha Christie's novel, directed by Michael Winner and starring Peter Ustinov as Hercule Poirot (the sixth and last appearance of Ustinov as Poirot).
The following weapons were used in the film Appointment with Death:
Revolvers
Iver Johnson Top-Break Revolver
A nickel plated top-break revolver is used to assassinate Hassan, the only whitness of the death of Emily Boynton. It appears to be Iver Johnson.
Webley .455 Mk VI
Col. Carbury (John Gielgud), Capt. Rogers (Douglas Sheldon) and an officer in Jerusalem carry revolvers in typical holsters for Webley .455 Mk VI. The only revolver, seen out of holster, appears too briefly.
Rifles and Muskets
Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III*
British soldiers are armed with Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III* rifles.
Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III* (mockup)
Some SMLE rifles appear to be mockups.
Jezail Musket
A pair of Jezail Muskets is used as a decoration in Col. Carbury's office.
Machine Guns
Unidentified machine gun
A machine gun is mounted on the armoured car coaxial with main gun. The turret resembles the one of German Pz.II tank, so the machine gun could be MG34 Panzerlauf, and the main gun - 2 cm KwK 30.
Trivia
Unknown armoured car is seen in several scenes. Its turret resembles the one of German Pz.II tank. The movie was filmed in Israel, so the armoured car is possibly some custom vehicle of early days of IDF.
