Raf Vallone was not only a multi-talented actor of international proportions on the world stage, and an acclaimed professional athlete (footballer) but an anti-fascist patriot in the Italian resistance during WWII. He was captured but escaped by swimming across Lake Como. Who can forget his Cardinal Lamberto in Godfather III?

I remember Richard Widmark since the nineteen fifttees in Street With No Name and Pick Up On South Street, Great movies

[@rubiconklbrutorowman7577]

Nice and entertaining ending!

[@GBR4ME]

Dad, I don't remember if we watched this together but it does look like someting we would have enjoyed. You sitting in your old chair, smoking your pipe, supping your tea. I miss you so much, Dad. If you and mum hadn't taken me from my 'mother' and that sorry excuse of a father, Lord knows what I would have become. I only hope I have made you both proud of what i made of my lfe.

Good episode. Thank you for posting.

[@sfinthecity]

I appreciate that.

[@alec2726]

Madigan I remember! So Good! Richard Widmark, never did a bad movie. Over-acted a bit but so did all the mafia guys who tried to copy him?

[@virgilstarkwell8383]

For a NYNY cop, Madigan spent a lot of time in Europe!

The USN ship at the beginning looks like the (taken from Wikipedia) USS Puget Sound (AD-38) was a Samuel Gompers-class destroyer tender, the second ship of the United States Navy to bear the name Puget Sound. The keel was laid 15 February 1965, and she was launched 16 September 1966. Commissioned 27 April 1968, she served almost 29 years until decommissioned on 27 January 1996. She was berthed at Naval Inactive Ship Maintenance Facility (NISMF) Philadelphia, Pennsylvania until April 2008 at which time she was sold to ESCO Marine, Brownsville, Texas for recycling and transferred under tow to that facility. The scrapping project was completed in February, 2009.

Old fashioned, si, Italian stereotypes, si; but I'm old now too.

[@quickjumpingfoxes]

Uncommonly good for TV, of any era. I tried episode one and it was 100% cliche. Not this one.

[@arieswaters]

Richard Widmark born in December 1914

[@meisterwue]

And died 2008

[@blakjakobin]

That makes him 59 years old at that time.

[@meisterwue]

@@blakjakobin indeed, Burt Lancaster born 1913 Kirk Douglas 1916, Gregory Peck 1917....Dean Martin 1917 Sinatra 1915

[@Michaelbos]

The series was never as good as the movie. It just didn’t have the same flavor and good intense quality and sub quality stories. Especially when they had stories outside the U.S. Besides everyone knew, the character was killed in the original movie.

[@bobharron6204]

I saw Richard Widmark walking on the street in Paris in 1958. In those days actors in Europe expected privacy so I never approached him for an autograph.

[@fokkerd3red618]

You must be getting up there in years to see him in 58.

[@bobharron6204]

@@fokkerd3red618 Eighty eight and counting. I was stationed in Orleans, France with the Army for two and a half years. I also saw Jack Palance one day.

[@russbradley8581]

Richard widmark, could play bad guy, good guy. Etc. He was also very good in westerns. Lived into his 90s

So fake but I love Dan Madigan!

[@UQRXD]

Poor Richard to be on such a crummy show.

[@Guide-remake]

😮

[@cheyenneasiafoxe292]

Ridiculous plot. An American detective just breaks into a Mafia kingpins house but in the 60s it was fun and Madigan, like Kojak and all the 60s detectives, were invincible to any reality but hell we loved our super dicks! Lol....love the character but my what a stretch.
