- A film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Agatha Christie, published in 1937.
- "Fatal Journey" was the title under which the film was released in Soviet cinemas in 1981.
- The film starred no fewer than 5 actors who were Academy Award winners – Peter Ustinov (1960 and 1964), George Kennedy (1967), Bette Davis (1935 and 1938), Maggie Smith (1969 and 1978), and David Niven (1958).
- According to the actors and crew members themselves, the filming conditions were simply atrocious. The film was indeed shot on the Nile, in Egypt and Sudan, on the real paddle steamer 'Memnon', one of the few surviving cruise 'riverboats' that sailed the Nile at the time. Practically, filming took place 'in one take' between 4 and 6 am; by noon, when the temperature reached 54 degrees Celsius, it was sometimes stopped for 6-8 hours.
- Due to the hot climate, Albert Finney refused the role of Poirot, as he had problems in the previous film, "Murder on the Orient Express," with the long makeup process, which was very hot under the artificial lighting. For the same reason, Poirot, who was always a brunette in Agatha Christie's works, was portrayed by Peter Ustinov as a blond with wheat-colored mustaches – otherwise, the actor risked heatstroke.
- Due to the limited space on the paddle steamer, the actresses shared a single dressing room.
- Mr. Pennington, as in the novel, says, "I always take a gun with me abroad." Before the start of World War II, the regulation of personal firearms in the British Empire was comparatively lenient, and carrying one like this was quite possible.
- James Ferguson (John Finch) in a scene with Rosalind Otterbourne (Olivia Hassie) in the sphinx alley, holds a book in Russian titled "Technology of Film Production" (author B. Konoplev, year of publication 1956).
- Angela Lansbury played the role of the writer Salomea Otterbourne. Later, the same actress would become famous for playing another writer – Jessica Fletcher. Lansbury also starred in the adaptation of Agatha Christie's "The Mirror Crack'd," where she played Miss Marple herself.
- The film was released in Soviet cinemas under the title “Fatal Voyage” in 1981.
