About this product

Product Information

The reluctant actor who was nominated for two Oscars and who immortalised Lieutenant Columbo around the world shares his hilarious and often touching stories - in his own inimitable voice. Peter Falk came to prominence as an actor in 1956 in the highly successful off-Broadway revival of The Iceman Cometh with Jason Robards. Although he worked continuously for the next three years, bouncing from one off-Broadway theatre to the next, a theatrical agent advised him not to expect much work in motion pictures because of his glass eye. Later, a talent scout for Columbia Pictures described Falk as a second John Garfield, but Harry Cohn, the head of Columbia Pictures, unfortunately disagreed- 'For the same price, I can get an actor with two eyes.'But in 1958, Twentieth Century Fox came to New York to make a movie - Murder Inc - and Falk landed a juicy role for which he received rave reviews and, incredibly, was nominated for an Academy Award. He was then nominated again for his second film, Pocketful of Miracles starring Bette Davis.Falk went on to become a favourite among filmgoers, yet it was through television that he reached his widest audience as Lt. Columbo, winning four Emmys for the role. Interestingly, Columbo's raincoat came out of Falk's bedroom closet. He bought it years before he became an actor. He's been quoted as saying, 'I wanted to wear something people would remember. Bottom line, it's the world's most famous raincoat.'Just One More Thing is pure Peter Falk, and reads as if he's sitting next to you, chuckling as he recalls his remarkable past.

  • Good value but I was hoping for a more detailed home/personal life!

    I absolutely love Peter Faulk! This is why I bought his book. I was a little disappointed as the book didn't go in to much detail about his life, which I would have liked. I didn't get some of the jokes and witty remarks due to the language barrier, I know it's all English but our humour etc is different in different countries...I did enjoy hearing about the parts he played, how he got them and who he played them with.

  • Should have hired a proof-reader.

    I was looking forward to the arrival of this book being a big Columbo fan. What a let down. A jumbled non sensical mess which appeared to be written for his own enjoyment without a thought to structure. Or what the people, his fans, may get from it. He comes across as a bit too cocky in this meandering purposeless rot and anyone wanting to know a little about him? They won't find it here. Maybe his wife can write a book and tell what he was like. Columbo Falk has of course gone to solve the bigger mysteries of the Universe.

  • Wonderful, as eBay should be, thank you.
