No swearing no cell phones no computers no annoyances via technocracy, just a pure straight thriller oh my God how sweet it would be to find those days again, even though I was a kid I still know how it felt and I miss it
Corrupt doctor murders for love, but it's a triple mystery, don't imagine that you know the verdict! Superb, the golden age of television, when it was an art form. Thank you, @ccc!
He did not murder for love. He killed her husband to marry her and get her money. He had faked her heart condition in her medical records for when he would kill her.
I spent about half an hour thinking "I've seen that husband before in something but what?". THEN it hit - he was the Assistant Police Commissioner in an episode of Columbo. GREAT!
Very good movie. Some of the films shot for TV were more interesting than many theatrical releases. The plot was unusual and surprising. Thanks for posting.
I honestly didn't see the ending coming! Marvelous acting and actors. Reta Shaw is always a delight to see. I remember her from Disney's Pollyanna and the TV series The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Most people remember John Forsythe from Dynasty or Bachelor Father, but he also gave an interesting performance in the offbeat Hitchcock movie 🎬 The Trouble With Harry. Richard Kiley was quite a prolific actor from the 60s right up into the 80s. Joseph Campanella was such a presence in The Bold Ones along with Joseph Farentino, Burl Ives, etc. Retro-fabulous!
This movie is really good ... could have been a success as a big screen release. The first 15 minutes didn't grab me, but once it got going, I was glued to the set. Thanks for posting this!!!
Good one. I love old TV movies from the 70 s. I was 6 or 7 when this aired so I missed it. Great plot twists, it kept my attention fully. Thanks so much!
I was born in January 1966. Watching these old movies is really nostalgic. Old cars, old clothes, etc. Interesting that in a 1971 movie they were already alluding to heroin in Vietnam. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, CCC for this movie. If anyone knows of anymore of this type please let me know. It has been such a loooooonnnng time since I enjoyed a thriller.
Death by natural causes (1979) is a really good thriller and a lifetime TV movie called A face to kill for is another excellent suspense film. Both are on UA-cam. Let me know if you like my recommendations.

Marvellous cast. Excellent thriller. We only wish that we would have anything good like this nowadays, despite all technology. These actors were class. Today, most are horrific. Class act!
A good movie, i remember watching this movie back in the seventies! On a funny note we had a pup called Happy!! Some of my favorite actors!! Thank you!!
@@joseortega-us6rn watched both movies, great recommendations thank you. The colony did make me think about the sort of neighbourhoods that the WEF want to put us all in. Perhaps it should be critical viewing for them as we humans will never be happy imprisoned in a colony as the films shows.
LOVED John Forsythe in "Dynasty" as Blake Carrington for 220 episodes from 1981 thru 1989! LOVED Barbara Bain as Cinnamon Carter in "Mission Impossible" 1966-1969!
John Forsythe plays a psycho perfectly - Something about this movie I just love, it reminds me of a much simpler more basic time and the acting is so hammy that it’s fun to watch. It’s like an old fashioned 60’s soap opera …. I think it’s terrific.
This is actually a good character and personality study. Arrogance, narcissism, lust for control. It also captures the feel of the era. I was in junior high school the year it was made.
I was 7 yrs old in 1971 and don't remember this movie at all. I vaguely recalled Barbara Bain in reruns on Mission: Impossible as a kid but I really got to know her on Space 1999 when I was 11-12. This movie was fantastic from beginning to end, it was like a 1940s Flim Noir done '70s style.
Interesante comentario, gracias por compartir. Barbara Bain fue una bella y talentosa actriz, especialmente en Misión imposible y Cosmos 1999,junto al gran Martin Landau.
Great story and acting by real professional actors actresses , good story well directed n produced and no cgi bull crap or crazy non human situations .
Very clumsy with forensics, even for 1971. For example, opening the murder scene for re-use by those who might be involved in concealing or planting evidence. It was however a surprisingly intense film in that very few characters played a major part in the plot and the director used darkness to add suspense and frights. I'd give that dog an Oscar.
What an excellent made for TV film that was! Never in a million yeras would I have suspected a double double-cross at the end. I only wish that these films could be produced in the modern day. Thanks for posting. Much appreciated.
Wow, all I can say. Incredible old movie, GREAT cast. Murders in the old movies had to be more subtle and cerebral, minus all the blood and gore, but just as riveting. The 'death' scene would be akin to the shower scene in Psycho. Horrifying but you don't really see a lot. It shows real talent to make everything so creepy without blood and guts everywhere. Kept you riveted to the plot you THOUGHT was the plot. This was a really great movie... and wow again... what an ending!!! Thanks again CCC!!
@@sheristewart3940 Not sure I really got it. Was the cop behind it some way the whole time? To get the woman. How did that work? Did the cop know the doc was going to bump off the woman's husband? I'm a bit confused. Lol
@@sheristewart3940 I just watched it again because I wanted to show it to my 22 yr. old son. He didn't get it either. I did like the movie enough to sit through it twice. But I am still confused. I don't want you to be a spoiler for others either, is there a way you can be subtle? I think I was being a spoiler on my previous comment. Maybe I should delete it?
I forgot the twists and turns of this movie. I saw it many years ago, it makes more sense now. I won't spoil this thriller. You owe it to yourself to watch it - but do watch it at least twice and you'll see something you missed previously.
I saw it years ago and could only remember the druggie getting the blame for the murder, cos he was easy to frame, THEN I remembered the COP ended up with the wife!
It's so fun watching John Forsythe fall apart on camera. If you like this one, find "Kitten With a Whip" where Ann Margaret twists him up like a pretzel. Thanks for posting!
Sadly, many " go" by accident, crime or disease, long before old age... Try to catch every tiny bit of joy , if you can... Take care. Love from England : we just had our Lovely Q.E.ll's 70 year Jubilee... Most of it was recorded and put on You Tube. Enjoy ! 🇬🇧😊💕🇬🇧😊🇬🇧
The Cars are always my favorite of any older movie. The 60's, thru 72, are my favorites. That's what I worked on, and 79's. I was 7 when this came out. I started messing with cars at 10. I wish I had all those things back. Even the parts I've touched. High end stuff. Rare.
@@kathleenking47 J remember sitting in line to get gas. You may have to help push a car ahead of you, because they ran out waiting. I was 9-10. The whole family, waiting. Going to get a bite to eat on Friday. Pops has gotten paid. Our favorite was the Quickie Drive in. They had the little square Krystal's, before Krystal came.

@@kathleenking47 Pay phones were everywhere. Id gladly go back! So much better times!

Finally a movie with a proper twist at the end! Very enjoyable, thank you. John Forsythe was a very handsome man.
I spent about half an hour thinking "I've seen that husband before in something but what?". THEN it hit - he was the Assistant Police Commissioner in an episode of Columbo. GREAT!
and he was great in Columbo, too. From a victim to a villain.
Yep!

Don't forget to mention about Barbara Bain who was on the "Mission Impossible" t.v. Show.
She plays the love interest, in this t.v. movie of the week.
I should have said, "t.v. Movie of the Week Mystery."
John Forsythe was also the voice giving assignments to the three beauties in Charlie's Angels.

I liked this one, wasn't expecting that ending! Good movie!
Love the seventies! The music, styles, movies, acting! Especially the 3 wheeled golf carts!
What a blast to the past. The music, sounds, story...takes me back to my childhood.
It is rare to see John Forsythe to play the negative role. He did a good job on that .
In Justice For All ( with Al Pacino), he had a very negative role as well. He was brilliant in it.
Jack La lane's dog was named "happy"
Marvellous cast. Excellent thriller. We only wish that we would have anything good like this nowadays, despite all technology. These actors were class. Today, most are horrific. Class act!

Typical clever plot from the 1970's, making an excellent film. Thank you!

Great Saturday night movie 🍿 thanks for uploading 🎬👏🏻
that was a brilliant film, I love john forsyth
Murder and Adultery were constant themes in these 70's movies!
This was so good. The acting was superb. The entire production came together like silk sheets.
But, what was the movie About ？ I mean The Plot. What wad that.
Love the old movie stars, next trip around I'm coming back with Barbara Bain's looks!
Even TV movies of that era were better than what we have today! Why?
A few good twists and turns in the final plot! 👍👍

Very theatrical acting by today's standards, but the ending was certainly unexpected, as it should be in a murder mystery.
"very theatrical" -- only someone who grew up on today's "standards' would refer to actual real, talented acting as "theatrical."
Great cast ❤

very enjoyable....thank-you
Mulțumesc frumos, bun film, ❤
A fantastic move
Barbara Bain, one of my favorites
Good title, that becomes clear only at the end!
I just like to see the cars, and styles back then....I was 8 yrs old when this movie was made. We all grow old and die
The cars, BEFORE the 1974 gas crunch⛽⛽🚗🚘
Sadly, many " go" by
accident, crime or disease,
long before old age...
Try to catch every
tiny bit of joy ,
if you can...
Take care.
