Miscellaneous: Lisa Martin waits with the corpse, which is covered with an electric blanket. Notice the corpse's face: a few seconds after the doorbell rings, the dead man dramatically blinks his eye. The camera angle and the actor's heavy eyelids create a startling effect as he bats his lashes. Apparently the actor's eyes are open except for the blink, which is puzzling since we earlier saw the dead body with his eyes closed. more

The rapport between Dunaway and Columbo is amazing to behold. The Greek chorus in Columbo's diner adds to the fun. Claudia Christian is magnificent as Dunaway's daughter. Dunaway gives an utterly fascinating performance and quite believably goes through a spectrum of emotions. And, there are nice twists and turns to keep the viewer interested.
