For millions of viewers, Peter Falk was the iconic TV detective Columbo for nearly 30 years: the eccentric, astute upholder of the law in his wrinkled trench coat who always asked "Just one more thing." As an actor, Peter Falk also worked on films with directors such as Frank Capra, Sydney Pollack and Blake Edwards, and of course with his friend John Cassavetes. Based on archive footage, interviews and extracts from his films and the TV show, PETER FALK VERSUS COLUMBO pays tribute to the immortal character of Columbo, while shedding light on the actor’s life, one full of twists and turns, ups and downs.
