You can tell a great story without action and I hope that if The Murder of Roger Ackroyd gets adapted again soon, the director and screenwriters don’t make major changes just to have a lot more action in the story. The book works because of the characters and how it leads the readers to the right answers constantly but makes them doubt themselves. Therefore, it may not seem like the most exciting book to adapt, but to think that would be a mistake. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd has little to no action in it. Mainly to see how faithful they are to the original stories. There are plenty more new Agatha Christie adaptations coming, which will be interesting to watch.
