Before that, no one had succeeded so convincingly to embody on the screen the image of Poirot No. 1, conveying all the subtle nuances of his character. Even his height (170 cm), eye color and pedantry unite him with the famous detective.
Suchet’s pedantry must be said separately:
In life, Suchet is a very interesting person – he is almost always cheerful and smiling, but at the same time he is terribly pedantic. “All things in my house should be in their place and make a complete composition. If there are two books on the table, they should lie symmetrically! ..
If the usual order is out of order, I begin to feel irritated. My loved ones have already come to terms with this. ” The actor realizes that this may be unbearable for others, but he cannot help himself.

“I adhere to one clear rule in life – the most important thing is what I do here and now, because this may be my last job. If life teaches us anything, if recently it has taught us to coexist with terrorism, it means that we are happy already that we are alive, and tomorrow may not come.
So, no matter what I do, my first love is above all – it should be so, because it can be the last and it requires me everything without a trace. “
The story of an interesting life continues today! He is a happy man: from childhood he fell in love with the theater, dreamed of becoming an actor and became one! And when a person is engaged in what he loves very much – this is happiness! Favorite job and favorite family.
