One thing he had not reckoned upon was Hercule Poirot's understanding of the human heart. So as Hastings wanders along the seafront, who should pull up, but his friend in a beautiful old car?
The person who leaves the taxi is not Hercule Poirot, however, but Bella Duveen, the girl Arthur Hastings has fallen in love with. The seafront provides a perfect place for their reunion.
According to one blogger, Joan D., this scene was actually filmed along the old waterfront road in the nearby French town of Trouville. But whether you're looking to fall in love with a beautiful hotel lounge singer, as Captain Arthur Hastings did in "Murder on the Links," or to share a special trip with the person you already love, the two lovely French towns of Deauville and Trouville, with their sweeping views across the English Channel of the white cliffs of Dover (at least, on a cloudless day), seem like the perfect place to spice up your love life.
They seem like wonderful places to take my wife one day. Or, at least, after we've visited all the places we wish to see in England.
