Strangely, just a few years later, this would have been totally cool as a disguise. RuPaul became famous not long after, without him hiding that he is a man or anything.

I like the song they played at the end of the movie.

Imagine them trying to make this film today. Can’t express anything today without offending someone. Just breathe. And you’ll still offend someone!

Devastating

Does anyone NOT cry at the end?

I love this movie so much and this scene

One of the best soundtracks ever!

В русском переводе и дубляже-смотрится гораздо лучше.. Обожаю этот фильм 🌸🌸🌸

And the song!!

Good Lord. Is this for some sort of gender class at university? heehee

What a great ensemble cast in this movie.

Has anyone watched the credits all the way through? One video showed their arms around each other in the end not in a romantic way upper body only…just wondered if that really happened

OMG. Three-fourths of the audio in this is shots of people walking ON CEMENT VERY LOUDLY.

What a treat tonight.....my favorite movie of all time!!!! They don't make such excellent movies anymore. Acting is superb!!!

Hoffman and Lange were priceless! a wonderful ending when he puts his arm around her and 'It might be you' plays in the closing credits! you cheer them both! I saw this with my brother, who is gone now! it always makes me tear up at the end!

The best ever Morse in my opinion! Old Morse is human under all the bluster and some magic one liners from the late Sam Kelly!

Admiral Piett: Its an older episode, sir, but it checks out

Maureen Lipman is incredibly talented. However, to my mind she delivers this monologue far too slowly. Joyce Grenfell's original version conveyed the passenger's nervousness through her quick delivery.

I've just watched the whole episode for the umpteenth time. Such intelligent dialogue which doesn't spell out everything for the viewer. It isn't until the final scene when we know that Mrs Dawson knew about Jane that we understand the significance of her remark to Morse in the Randolph to the effect that you can't hang a man's unhappiness solely on his wife, or his happiness. Poor Mrs Dawson - to find out that it wasn't their childlessness that had marred their marriage, that your husband had had a daughter, that she was the victim in an infamous murder case, that your husband was a murderer and that he'd never really loved you - no wonder she looked in a state of shock. I also liked the Walter Majors character - adding a little levity to a very dark tale. I wonder if that episode won any awards - it should have done.

Great ending!

Mi piacerebbe in italiano perché non capisco comunque complimenti x questi bellissimi episodi

'Perhaps she was'. That is a most powerful ending, which very much encapsulate the depth of the Morse-character and the brilliant series. One of the best episodes.

Joyce Grenfell would turn in her grave.

Morse is saying that women, to him at least, represent the more reasonable and delicate qualities of the human race. It's men who lose their cool and go off doing silly things and women who talk sense into them.

The awful pain his wife must have felt when her husband spoke of losing the only two people he had ever really loved-his lover and their child😢

Absolutely one of the best. Appeals to all ages.

He didn't.

Damn Manhattan was such a dump in the early 80s.

Ken Colley & John Thaw (and a great supporting cast) wrapped more into that 90 mins than any other Morse episode.

Еще тЫ сказал что меня на работу никто ни возьмёт я устроилась посудамойкой на рыболовном судне можежь меня поздравить Я еду с изабелой в Норвегию с капсулой будь 0сторожен в ней вся твоя доля 🚬🍒 целую твоя мышка

Wonderful.

Wonderful homage to Joyce from an amazingly talented actress and also another brilliant renaissance woman herself- Joyce & Maureen are both fantastic and this is such a beautiful sketch- full of the worries and hopes of a lady of the era yet kind at the same time. ❤❤❤

That's why we love Morse. He might be from another era and did not share our modern enlightened view of gender stereotypes. He even openly admitted that he might be too old to change his view. Yet, he was fully capable of keeping things civilized. He listened carefully, quietly, to what others have to say, even if he disagreed. And he was not above apologising for misspeaking, something too many people in this day and age fail to do.

Great actor Hoffman.

my faaaavorite movie

One of the best scenes in this very sinister (and somewhat underrated) episode. Both of them are in the wrong, Morse is careless in his language, and she can’t express her point of view in a properly professional manner. I don’t think it’s controversial to say that the whole episode hinges around this battle of the sexes, it’s hardly a coincidence that she’s the one who pulls the trigger on Barrie.

Think the studios are Condos now and every time I drive down 42nd street I think of this scene.

No, no, no. Maureen Lipman is not and never will be Joyce Grenfell. She actually sounds as though she's deliberately mocking her rather than paying tribute to her. Horrible.

Morse is right.

I love Dustin Hoffman

I love the old movies

the best ever episode of probably the best TV series ever

Great acting from Ken colley.

Sadly this is an insight to the easily offended society of today.

we need stories like this

the baddie did most of the heavy lifting in this ep....sometimes thats what makes tv shows like this work, yes we all love John Thaw but its the brilliant casting that makes good tv great tv..the acting all around was superb

Jessy Lange is still a knock out

'You're nicked, you slaaaaag!' Opps, wrong John Thaw character.

A great acting masterclass.

I think this movie was a precedent to explore concepts of gender fluidity and presentation way before it became a widely accepted thing. It’s kind of reassuring to know that gender fluidity was something that existed in the 80’s as it does now. It just matters how the audience interprets this. Boomers might just think “haha, a man dressed as a woman is funny” but there were probably gender fluid people back them who were able to identify with this movie as there are now. The only difference is today there are more people out about their gender identity and it is more widely accepted and acknowledged. This movie isn’t perfect by a long shot as it still adheres to stereotypical gender roles and homophobic rhetoric that was kind of required for a movie in the 80’s. Anyways, I’ve only seen clips of this movie but I intend on watching it.
