Donald Pleasance was a great actor, no doubt about it. I would have liked to see him in other COlumbo episodes (like Jack Cassidy). You may also recall he was in several of the "Halloween" movies as Dr. Sam Loomis.
yes...this episode has a lot of problems..a lot of things that just don't fit....but darnit! i love it so!
donald pleasence was absolutely terrific in it. i loved his mannerisms and the way he spoke...oh so gentle.
i recommend that you check him out in an episode of the twilight zone called 'the changing of the guard'..this episode will enlighten you and also break your heart......."be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity".........
If I remember rightly Adrian ties his brother up with his arms pulled behind his back and his legs pulled back up towards them. In that position it would have been very difficult to reach a bottle, break it and then cut the rope.
