George Clooney remade it as a TV movie in 2000.

My favorite role of his was in The Cheap Detective, as Pepe Damascus, parodying Peter Lorre's role in The Maltese Falcon. <br /><br />Whoever DeLuise was playing off of, he never stole their thunder or allowed them to steal his. The interactions always seemed natural. Quite a talent all by itself.<br /><br />I gotta make a note to see Fail Safe.Corey Wildehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05566740230330395590noreply@blogger.com
