Decent Idea, but It Took Forever
5 May 2023
After viewing all the original half hour AK stories, the hour long ones seem to plod along. Here we have a cool idea. As an author, send a series of tapes, one at a time, to your publisher. Tell a story that you are actually living, a murder plot. James Mason, he of the great voice, plays a fellow who is in a car accident with his young wife. She dies and he goes on, but there is brain damage. He has fallen in love with another woman, one played by Angie Dickenson. The men in the office, listening to the tape decide the guy is telling the truth. Soon the publisher must recognize that things happen that must be dealt with.
