H. G. Wells' non-fantasy efforts have, with the exception of Kipps, proven traditionally difficult to transfer to film. History of Mr. Polly occasionally suffers from too-close fidelity to its Wellsian source, one wishes that adaptor/director Anthony Pelissier could have "opened up" the story a bit more. Still, the film is impeccably cast: particularly good is John Mills as Alfred Polly, whose efforts to make a go in the business world continually come acropper. A humble draper's clerk, Polly is profoundly affected by a variety of personal relationships, most notably with colorful Uncle Jim (Finlay Currie) and his nagging wife Miriam (Betty Ann Davies).

Peter Ustinov makes his second appearance as Belgian detective Hercule Poirot in this adaptation of the popular Agatha Christie mystery.

The suspects include Rex Brewster (Roddy McDowall), a writer penning a biography of Arlena that the actress tried to stop, Odell and Myra Gardener (James Mason and Sylvia Miles), theatrical producers who were financially shafted when Arlena refused to appear in a show, Arlena's husband, Kenneth (Denis Quilley), Kenneths lover, Daphne (Maggie Smith), Patrick Redfern (Nicholas Clay), who was having an affair with Arlena, and Christine (Jane Birkin), Nicholas' wife.
