DVD Review: Little Pleasures
Summary: 4 Stars
The famous Belgian detective, M. Hercule Poirot, is an astute observer of human nature; he can see people with his little gray cells: their hidden evil selves, their murderous machinations, and their nefarious intents. He lives to solve the crimes most complex, but occasionally he finds himself between cases affording him the opportunity to indulge in little pleasures.
In 'The Theft of the Royal Ruby' you first see Poirot in a chocolate shop. The worried confectioner closely watches Poirot as he samples a piece of hand-made chocolate; contorted expressions cross Poirot's face, but when Hercule purrs, "Magnifique!," all is well. As he leaves the shop, he is whisked off; a precious Egyptian jewel has been stolen. His chocolates will have to wait.
Poirot is fastidiously arranging his stamp collection according to size in 'The Affair of the Victory Ball.' He has no intention of going to the masquerade ball until Hastings appeals to his vanity. At the ball, the Crenshaw party arrives; their costumes are based on a collector's set of six china figurines representing masked characters of pantomime. One mask hides the face of a murderer.
Poirot joins Hastings on a hunt in 'The Mystery of Hunter's Lodge.' Patches of snow cover the moor. While the hunters fire off their volleys at the rising fowl, Poirot sits on a stool studying a book of gourmet recipes. Zoe Havering asks him why he is sitting out in the cold. He says, with relish, that the red grouse: "... must be eaten fresh while the gun is still smoking!" Later, another gun smokes; its target was not a game bird.

Description of Agatha Christie's Poirot: Collector's Set Volume 6
C?est vrai!David Suchet is the definitive Poirot.
Hercule Poirot is the detective, and no actor has defined the brilliant little Belgian?s onscreen persona like DAVID SUCHET, the Poirot. Millions of fans made Suchet?s Poirot the most-watched detective in the history of the PBS Mystery! series and a hit all over again on A&E. Armed only with his razor-sharp wit, Poirot unravels the intricate plots concocted by Dame Agatha Christie, the mother of the modern mystery story. Ablaze with the elegance of its 1930s setting, the series also stars Hugh Fraser as Captain Hastings, Philip Jackson as Chief Inspector Japp and Pauline Moran as Miss Lemon.
THE THEFT OF THE ROYAL RUBY ? International relations are at stake as Poirot hunts for a stolen Egyptian royal jewel. THE AFFAIR AT THE VICTORY BALL ? When two revelers at a lavish costume ball are murdered, small but telling clues lead Poirot to the killer. THE MYSTERY OF HUNTER?S LODGE ? Poirot must find a murderer among the members of a quarrelsome hunting party. DVD SPECIAL FEATURES INCLUDE biographies of Agatha Christie and David Suchet, cast filmographies and Agatha Christie materials.
