a lot of people miss the subtle subtext of this scene. this was a rare occasion where columbo was sympathetic enough to the murderer to give him an out. he revealed to him at the end that he was onto him, then revealed that she covered for him, this was to give him a chance to flee the country with her and have somewhat of a "happy" ending for themselves. carsini was in the end too recalcitrant and perhaps too attached to his status in the wine community to leave

@wallochdm1 11 ай бұрын

@@cagneybillingsley2165 That's an interesting take I've never heard before. I've always understood it as immense respect for Carsini's intelligence and mutual respect for each other, hence the touching ending. While the Columbo character occasionally has sympathy for a murderer he doesn't "let them go". The one exception would be "Forgotten Lady", where he agrees to play along because he knows she will die within weeks. I do appreciate the alternative opinion. Food for thought.

You gotta love how Pleseance can display such subtlety, the way he immediately stares down the wine bottle when it comes to the table, the way you can literally see the thirst form in his eyes, and then contrast that with the massive Shakespearian outburst when he finds out the wine has been ruined, such a great performance.

@StickFigureStudios 3 жыл бұрын

This may be my favorite Columbo ending of them all. I love the ones where the lieutenant uses the suspect's own arrogance / expertise against them. In this case by pointing out the oxidation of the port, something that only a small handful of people in the world would have been able to do, Donald Pleasance was essentially hanging himself. Despite the dreadfulness of the wine, it's still an utterly delicious denouement.

But how this could be connected to the murder? It could be many reasons for the wine to be overheated. What Columbo proved is only that the temperature in the storage room was high. But how to go from this point to the proof of murder? This is what I don't understand.

@samfisk4848 2 жыл бұрын

@@ultimathule1000 It wasn’t so much to prove it for himself. It was moreso a pretext to tell Carsini about the heat wave and to make him realize that his entire wine cellar was ruined. Thus he had to get rid of it because every bottle was proof he had shut off ventilation and air conditioning in the cellar. Which he would have absolutely no reason to do, unless he wanted to suffocate someone.

I love how subtly this trap conveys Columbo's understanding of Carcini and the tragedy of the circumstances. The spoiled wine itself is, perhaps, a metaphor for Carcini himself- a wasted man who went bad due to unfortunate circumstances and desperation. And only a connoisseur could sense something had gone terribly wrong. Carcini and Columbo both knew the offense wasn't so egregious to the general public- but neither of them could just let it go. You can tell Columbo feels bad for solving this- he even outright says "I deserve to pay for this." There's a part of him that knows the brother got what was coming to him. That there's already a perfectly adequate official story prepped and waiting. There would be very little harm in letting it slide. But it's murder. And he can't let the truth go any more than Carcini can stomach overheated wine.

@nick37104 2 жыл бұрын

The thing that absolutely astonishes me about this episode is that this is a cold character Pleasence is playing. He's so rich, so multi-faceted, that it seems like Pleasence has embodied this role for years, and it's almost "criminal" that this is the only time we get to see him. Culp is my favorite killer, but Pleasence is right up there in the second spot. Even though Cassidy is brilliant, I like Carsini just a touch more.

@sandranelson7124 2 жыл бұрын

Culp and Cassidy were too arrogant in their portrayals of the killers. Donald Plesance was my favorite "Columbo" killer in the whole series!! He was devious to a point. He was likable, also. He was Falk's favorite co-star (killer) in the whole TV series, l've heard and read.

@Angie H. Wrong. As I said, I have all the ORIGINAL DVDS. Look up copyright law, different in different countries. We are entitled/allowed to make "backup copies" of our DVDS. So ripping them to I can stick them all digitally on my NAS drive and watch them in my own home, legally is all fine and legit.

Shows how people with a refined pallet can taste things differently to the average person.

I can imagine Columbo and Carsini being quite good pals if one hadn't been a killer and the other a cop. On a side note, the look of sheer excitement on Carsini's face as he's watching Columbo take a sip of the port 😭

Unrelated Trivia: During the Qin Dynasty in China they caught a fugitive musician in the same way. The man was working as a waiter in an inn and started blowing his mouth about how bad the resident musician was. Then when challenged to do better gave a performance so stunning it came to the attention of the authorities.
