I remember watching this movie on TV with my father in the mid-60s when I was about 10 years old.
When Peter Falk was on the screen, my father said that when he was about my age (in the early 1930s), he used to set pins in a bowling alley in Brooklyn, and the real Abe Reles bowled there nearly every day.
I recall what a mad dog that Falk portrayed and how it chilled me that my dad set pins for him.
I will be on the lookout for this movie again, so I can piece it all back together again.
