Barthes Theory states that every movie, soap, poster etc. suggests a mystery to then attempt to draw an audience in to watching it. A good example would be any murder mystery film as in the trailers it will give enough information out to the audience but then leave them asking questions and then become very interested in going to find out what happens.
Due to Murder On The Orient Express being a murder mystery movie, we can apply this theory very easily because throughout the trailer we aren't given much information at all apart from each of the main characters and the supposed protagonist. As a viewer I am instantly drawn into this film, mainly because of not seeing much I am very interested in going to see this film to understand more of the movie.
