Rome Express is a 1950 French comedy thriller film directed by Christian Stengel and starring Hélène Perdrière, Jean Debucourt and Denise Grey. It was shot at the Franstudio complex at Joinville Studios in Paris. The film's sets were designed by the art director Robert Hubert. Although using a similar theme and location, it is not a remake of the 1932 British film Rome Express.

Synopsis

Five women are invited by a mysterious correspondent to catch a train from Paris to Rome. They begin to disappear one by one from the sleeping car, and Inspector Giovanni investigate the mysterious situation with many potential suspects on board.
