Trama
Lo sapevi?
- QuizThe Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, located in Hollywood across from the original Grauman Chinese Theatre, was this movie's hotel lobby interiors. The hotel check-in desk was positioned in the West side of the lobby, opposite the Hotel's actual main desk check-in. Primarily to provide little interruption, unnecessary actual hotel guest activity during the filming process. Set Decorator Donald J. Remacle switched and added furniture, tables, lamps and plants to the existing lobby. The hotel rooms and corridors were built on-stage at Universal Studios.
- BlooperWhile Jessica is reading Yuri's manuscript, Warren knocks on her door and the pages in the book indicate that she is almost finished reading it. But when the camera changes to look over her shoulder, the pages in the book show that she is now back near the beginning.
- Citazioni
[last lines]
Jessica Fletcher: But because I am a romantic, I still believe that we have the potential to be nobler than we know and better than we think. That the darkness I've seen is only a *shadow* on the *potential* of the human heart. Warren, in his own way, was a romantic, made hard by the world around him, until he finally made a tragic mistake. He walked away from his own moral compass. So I urge you to keep your heart's compass on the true north of your dreams. Be free to be romantics, to reject cynicism, to believe that good will prevail and that those who do wrong will be punished, because, when the hour of the wolf comes, as it comes to all of us sooner or later, those are the things that sustain us. Thank you and goodnight.

I'm over the moon. Really, if this were part of the regular series I'd be saying this was my favorite episode block ever. We have Jessica at a writer's conference, people calling her on all her investigating and the publicity it's brought her books, questioning her motives. It's beautiful. While it still hovers just below painting a picture of a complex character it gives us a lot to like.
And the story is classic MSW. In fact, altogether I'd say this is back to basics. Great plot, more than just cardboard cutouts for characters, and a sleek production. While there wasn't a high body count, the main murder was bloody (considering it's MSW we're talking about.) Also, ASTDF features some of the best acting in supporting roles MSW had seen in a long time (after the late 90s cringe- inducing performances from young "up and comers.") And, this might be Angela's finest portrayal of Jessica Fletcher yet. Maybe because she's aged, but she seems more vulnerable than ever before (save Thursday's Child).
I only wish somehow Seth could've been involved, as with all the movies we don't even get a single mention of Cabot Cove (IIRC).
If you haven't seen it, and you're a fan, make every effort to do so. You won't be disappointed.
Angela, I love you. Jessica, I can't wait till they remake you and your world for a new audience -- which I'm sure they will.
