Books. Movies. Books about movies. Movies about anything. He/him. Seem to be drawn mostly to crime (film noir, Krimi, all kinds of capers) and classic comedy. Developing a bit of a James Mason fixation.

The scene in which the kid composes 'Ben' is perhaps one of the greatest fake composition scenes in cinema. Certainly better than Jeremy Allen White dicking around with his 4 track www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfCL...

Great interview. The Einstein drawing Peter mentions was on his art website, but wasn’t on sale as a print, so I asked if there was any chance of getting one run off. A couple of months later, he dug it out. (Never got a Don Shula, though.)

You might enjoy these quotes from Falk talking in general about Columbo's "reaching into pockets" business. (In that same interview he told me about directing "Blueprint for Murder" and getting help from Cassavetes and Spielberg.)
