Hercule Poirot never gets angry, unless he is 'accused' of Frenchness. He's a Belgian! even if not at birth, his creator being Lady Mallowan Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller, world renowned as Christie, from the British town of Torquay.
Another imaginary characther, the young journalist TinTin, is actually so, head on in the bargain. His cartoonist Georges Prosper Remi, Hergé, is from Ettebeek, provincial town in the bilingual Bruxelles-Capitale region, the Belgian newspaper that first published in 1929 the adventures of the dauntless fair-haired boy with the wisp, Le Petit Vingtième, was the supplement of the Vingtième Siècle and even is four-legged friend, the white terrier Milou, is Belgian. TinTin is froncophone and the Spielberg movie highlights this aspect, but notwithstanding during the Rome Film Festival the 'French comic-strip' was still in the conversations. The 'little grey cells' of Hercule Poirot would have surely get stressed.
