Featured review
WHY DO RICH GUYS FALL OFF CLIFFS?
An outstanding whodunit, and the perfect cast. Credit Robert Lewin, who also wrote for BARETTA and many episodes for STAR TREK, NEXT GENERATION.
Lois Nettleton, looking guilty from the start, is suspected of pushing her wealthy husband off a cliff, or at least something to do with the crime. She was truly one of the few clients Cannon ever had who you had doubts about. Lois is dynamic in this role.
Did we mention there's 350,000 dollars at stake? Hmmm?
Big and tall Simon Scott, frequently cast on the show, assists Cannon with the mystery and beware of twists... Scott worked with William Conrad for years at Warner Brothers/ABC tv. This story will keep you guessing, and that's the fun part. There's some nice scenery, right up until the victim plunges to his untimely death.
Look for young Kevin Dobson (pre KOJAK) as a hotel guard, also Bert Freed, who could convincingly play cops and sneaky bad guys.
Another appearance by famous bit player Bob Hawks, this time playing a forest ranger. He held the record for appearing in hundreds of tv shows with just about every tv star.
Directed by Robert Douglas, another old friend of Bill Conrad at WB, behind many classic tv shows and a well known actor. He usually played villains, opposite the likes of Errol Flynn and Robert Taylor.
If you have a keen eye, the front door of Lois' apartment opens up into the same hallway where Frank's apartment is. Looks very familiar.
By the way, the hotel Cannon is staying at is the Universal Sheraton in North Hollywood, not too far from Beverly Garland's hotel.
Recommended for all mystery buffs. 10 Stars. SEASON 2 EPISODE 10 CBS/Paramount dvd box set No. 1 of 2. 3 dvds per box. 21 hrs total.
