Well this was interesting. I've still never actually seen this episode. I've read about it, but never saw it in any re-run rotation. There are some ideas here we've seen before from TZ, the rope breaking ("Dust"), the idea of seeing his putative wife or some other ghost ("The Passersby"), and the protagonist dreaming, so it appears, about some place he'd rather be right before dying ("A Stop at Willoughby"). At least that's the impression I got. I'd love to see the actual episode in full some day, but your review was a nice glimpse in case I never get to. Thank you.

*This was not a genuine Twilight Zone episode, but a film shot over in France with French actors.*

[@thehatreviews6068]

Yes, I mention that at the beginning of the review.

i wish we were able to see the film without the interrupting commentary

[@jamessauve2419]

If by "interrupting commentary" you mean the reviewers comments, well that's the nature of reviews. It's not the actual episode, just a review and evaluation of it. If the reviewer simply posted the episode in it's entirety I suspect CBS would have it pulled for copyright violation since that wouldn't be covered by 'fair use'.
