Peter Falk is one of those actors I grew to appreciate more as an adult; as a kid, he was always just 'there" as Columbo and I took him for granted.Jack Seabrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216640325305820140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672923492889685727.post-31598050344758974932022-09-14T05:00:18.082-07:002022-09-14T05:00:18.082-07:00Something I noticed about this episode was that Fa...Something I noticed about this episode was that Falk's character had gray temples (unlike Falk himself at the time), which made me wonder if there'd be a flashback to show a scene years prior, but that never happened. I guess the gray hair was just to age him up a bit, so he'd look more like a well established gangster who feared mortality, or maybe just to make him look closer in age to Hartman, whose character he had "picked up out of the gutter" awhile before.

I haven't seen much of Hartman, at least in recent years, but I wasn't impressed with him here or in his other AHP roles.Jack Seabrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216640325305820140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6672923492889685727.post-4756178568617414042021-05-06T08:33:59.902-07:002021-05-06T08:33:59.902-07:00I've only seen it once, but I kind of liked it...I've only seen it once, but I kind of liked it in a sad way. Of course, Peter Falk can cause me to watch almost anything.<br />I always seem to associate Paul Hartman with light comedies, so it's strange to see him not only in something dramatic, but in such a heavy role.Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603892208775996594noreply@blogger.com
