OoOoOoO
Rian Johnson you want to set the next knives out film on a train in an homage to Murder on the Orient Express
It could even be the California Zephyr, the rich assholes are taking it to Colorado to get to a Ski resort when suddenly a man known for philanthropy dies of cyanide poisoning
Better idea: in a mirror image of Christie's Orient Express, the victim dies of wholly natural causes, but every passenger on the train wants to be known as the killer, and tries to frame themself as best as they can.
That actually sounds like an incredibly fascinating film
The philanthropist dies in the dining car of a heart attack but his drink was laced with cyanide leading investigators to assume he died of cyanide poisoning, additionally between the heart attack and the investigators arriving on the train, someone stabbed the philanthropist twice. The suspects are as follows:
- A wealthy lesbian couple from Chicago
- A famed painter whose works are worth millions
- A tech worker whose well off but dissatisfied with his life
- A doctor from San Francisco
- A mystery writer struggling to come up with a plot for her book
- A chemist
- An apple farmer from Indiana
