Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe 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.
- GoofsWhile 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.
- Quotes
[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.

So Regehr is murdered and at the more leisurely pace that a feature film offers Angela Lansbury solves it.
Regehr is the type that will leave few mourning for him. Still murder is murder. There is a final scene with Lansbury giving a speech and she's asked about the ethics of getting involved with so many real life murder cases. Her speech ought to be required viewing for all, it's that good.
