    Falk is a Genius

    Peter Falk gives one of the greatest performances of an actor playing a TV detective. The difference with this detective is not guessing who is the murderer. But rather how long they can go before they give themselves away from the constant questions from Columbo, who hides in his shabby coat, with a bumbing personality, a fierce intellect ready to get his man. Roddy McDowell guests in a fantastic episode who is caught in a typical Columbo way. Also in this collection, is the first episode, the pilot made in 1968 3 years before a proper TV series was made. Not only does Peter Falk look alot younger, but with his usual mannerisms which would become famous for his character, this younger Columbo has a much more harder side to his personality as he tries to break down an accessory to the murderer. I've certainly never seen Columbo be that hard hitting with his questioning. Still - its all good stuff and he is rightly one of the best TV detectives.
