    "Murder with Too Many Notes" (2001)

    PLOT: A popular Hollywood composer (Billy Connolly) murders his apprentice (Chad Willett) who's been ghostwriting most of his scores after the young man quits and the threat of exposure looms.

    COMMENTARY: There are many things to appreciate about this installment, like the believable and creative set-up: The apprentice practicing on the roof of the theater, the long dormant elevator and the conductor's motive, which isn't just envy, but the threat of ruin and mass embarrassment. Jealousy goes back to Shakespeare and ancient Greek theater, but I find placing envy and status into the framework of Oscar-winning composition compelling. The episode is also an interesting window into the behind-the-scenes activity surrounding the scores to major films.

    Yet there are seeming problems with the muddled ending, which can be traced to Patrick McGoohan's rewrites as director. He decided to use a musical demonstration at the climax in order to be theatrical, but the way it's done does not lend itself to a satisfying "gotcha" response. The scriptwriter, Jeffrey Cava, included several clues in his teleplay that failed to make it to the screen after McGoohan's revisions. For instance, the ultimate clue in Cava's script was particularly convicting and impossible for the murderer to dodge, but McGoohan prudently eliminated it for practical reasons. On top of this, it's dishonest to say there is "no evidence" in McGoohan's version. For detailed answers Google The Lt. Columbo Forum and punch-in Murder with Too Many Notes.

    Others complain that Columbo's slow drive home with the conductor is filler material. But the rumpled detective already sniffed him out as the murderer and needed to spend time with him to accumulate evidence and start wearing the suspect down in order to eventually break him. Columbo knows that when people get seriously aggravated they start saying & doing things they never intended to and thus reveal evidence against them.

    As shot, "Murder with Too Many Notes" is somewhat of a headscratcher, but the answers ARE there if you look for them. Besides, what's wrong with head-scratching in a murder mystery?

    GRADE: B/B-
    6blanche-2

    odd Columbo - and not very good

    I have to agree with everything that's been written about this episode - it's a bomb. Not THE BOMB, a BOMB.

    The story wasn't bad, but as has been pointed out, too much went unexplained. The drive to the killer's house - Columbo running out of gas - what was all that about? I think Columbo was trying to rattle the guy or get him to lose his temper. We don't know though.

    Obvious filler to stretch the episode was the "Name that Tune" with the orchestra. Embarrassing.

    The denouement - were they kidding? Where was the evidence?

    Very disappointing. Obviously, a slapped-together episode because the name "Columbo" meant ratings - they figured the audience would watch anything with Peter Falk as Columbo. They were right. But it was insulting.

    One of the most confusing and disappointing Columbo episodes ever made.

    The murder plot is actually pretty ingenious, and the murderer, actor Billy Connoly, is quite interesting as Columbo's foil. But the writing is dreadful, as it leaves tons of stuff unexplained and puts in tons of stuff for no seeming purpose or connection to the plot. Early on, when Columbo drives the killer home in an endlessly long scene, it is obviously for some purpose, but that purpose is never explained. An extended focus on a certain aspect of the victim's clothing is likewise endlessly extended, but leaves it very unclear as to what Columbo is seeking to prove with it. Finally, in the final scene, he re-enacts the murder in a staged childlike manner, bringing up issues that seemingly have no connection to his proof, and offers a final "proof" that is one of the least convincing in Columbo history, yet the murderer smilingly gives up w/o any argument. And the final big clue is obtained after the medical examiner overlooked an obvious piece of evidence that would have cost any ME his job. What is most frustrating is that for long stretches of this movie, it is actually highly enjoyable, and with the fine acting of the murderer and the directing of the great Columbo contributor Patrick McGoohan, it could easily have been turned into a dandy episode, if only the writing was at more than a B-movie level.

    Even mediocre Columbo is better than no Columbo

    This was not a strong script and I think Peter Falk has started to almost parody the Columbo character. I did not like the ending. He did not seem to actually prove that the villain had committed this murder and he gave up too easily, but it is still always great to see a new Columbo.

    Good if not great

    Murder with too Many Notes(love the title) was a good episode, but it was too flawed to be considered great. Starting with the good points, it is strikingly filmed, the music is delightful, there is some nice scripting and the acting from Peter Falk(not his best mind you, some of the more humorous parts such as "guess the piece" fell slightly flat) and Billy Conolly(toned down but surprisingly effective) is good. However, the plot isn't as strong this time around, the forensics for example as said already is dated and the ending especially was far too abrupt and underdeveloped. The pacing was uneven here, some of it was okay, some of it was slow and other parts felt somewhat frantic. The direction is a tad lacking as well. So overall, it is good, with some good performances, music and title, but the ending and plot fell flat for me. 6/10 Bethany Cox

      Billy Connolly's character name, "Findlay Crawford", is taken from his stand-up comedy, in which he mocks the names wealthy parents give their children. "Findlay" and "Crawford" are two separate names he cites as being particularly irksome.

      Lt. Columbo: Oh, sorry to disturb you, sir. I realize this is a bad time.

      Findlay Crawford: Have a drink. It's a good time to be drinking.

      Lt. Columbo: Uh, not right now, thank you, sir. Still on duty. Would it be all right, sir, if I, uh, smoked a small cigar?

      Findlay Crawford: Of course. I love a good cigar myself. There's a humidor over there. Help yourself.

      Lt. Columbo: Oh, I'm kind of used to these here, thank you.

      Findlay Crawford: Please yourself. Light up, sit down, and make yourself at home. No more home for poor Gabriel, I'm afraid.

      Lt. Columbo: Oh, that was unfortunate, sir.

      Findlay Crawford: It was a tragedy, Mr. Columbo, a tragedy. A wonderful young man with a great future.

      Lt. Columbo: So I heard, sir.

      Findlay Crawford: He was like a son to me. Let's have some music.

      [classical instrumental music starts playing loudly. Crawford starts acting as a composer and then turns the music off]

      Findlay Crawford: Tchaikovsky.

      Lt. Columbo: Well, uh, sir, I...

      Findlay Crawford: Perhaps you'd rather hear some rock and roll?

      Lt. Columbo: I wouldn't say that, sir.

      Findlay Crawford: [singing] In a cabin, in a canyon, excavating for a mine, lived a miner

      Lt. Columbo: A forty-niner.

      Lt. Columbo, Findlay Crawford: And his daughter, Clementine. Oh, my darlin', oh, my darlin', oh my darlin' Clementine, you are lost and gone forever...

      Lt. Columbo: Dreadful sorry...

      Lt. Columbo, Findlay Crawford: Clementine.

      Findlay Crawford: At least we established part of your taste. But I think it's time for some sad music. More befitting the mood of the evening. A little cello, perhaps. Nothing weeps like a cello.

      [instrumental cello music starts playing]

      Lt. Columbo: Uh, Mr. Crawford... Mr. Crawford, I'm sure you could play wonderful music all night long, but there are a few questions. I realize that this has been a shock to you, but it has to be done.

      Findlay Crawford: What did you have in mind, Mr. Columbo?

      Lt. Columbo: Where were you, sir, when the deceased fell off the roof?

      Findlay Crawford: I was on stage, conducting a concert.

      Lt. Columbo: And when was the last time that you saw Mr. McEnry alive, sir?

      Findlay Crawford: That would be last evening. In here, in the bungalow.

      Lt. Columbo: And sort of mood was he in?

      Findlay Crawford: Since I had just informed him he would be conducting the theme from The Killer in tonight's program, ecstatic.

      Lt. Columbo: Ecstatic day before... Day before. So, uh... Oh, so he wasn't here when you arrived today?

      Findlay Crawford: I arrived at the studio a few minutes before the performance. I didn't see Gabriel. I just assumed, as was his normal practice, he'd be on the roof, conducting along with me, and would appear when he was due on stage.

      Lt. Columbo: So the first time that you saw him today he was on the ground. I can imagine how you felt, sir.

      Findlay Crawford: I was devastated.

      Lt. Columbo: And what did you do right after that?

      Findlay Crawford: Some members of the audience had come outside to gawk. I told them to go back indoors. I announced that the performance for this evening was cancelled, and assured those present that the tickets would be good for next Saturday, when an additional piece would be added to the program. A piece that I would compose myself as a trib...

      [sniffs]

      Findlay Crawford: ... as a tribute to Gabriel.

      Lt. Columbo: Oh, very nice gesture, sir. Uh, tell me, did Mr. Gabriel, when he was conducting, did he always use a baton?

      Findlay Crawford: Of course. We all use batons. Why do you ask?

      Lt. Columbo: Well... Well, you never know, sir. Somebody said he was a bit eccentric.

      Findlay Crawford: [scoffs] Not that eccentric.
