Viewing Notes

This movie is so good! It’s a television movie featuring James Franciscus (Beneath the Planet of the Apes!) as a husband with a missing wife and Jack Klugman (Quincy!) as the small town detective trying to solve the mystery. It’s a great tv movie but what made it so enjoyable is that I recently viewed a foreign film with a very similar premise so I kept wondering if this movie would play out the same way.

I’d be very happy if Amazon Prime filled their collection with old tv movies like this. Was quite nostalgic to watch this one especially with Klugman (I was a big Odd Couple and Quincy fan as a kid).
