D And I can safely say that this pilot is one of the best pilots of the series in principle. He is perfectly balanced, has a terrific character in stock, the magnificent aesthetics of the time epoch surrounding him at that time, is very thorough in terms of details, but does not overdo it (I was pleased with the moment with the glove on the phone at the very beginning) does not forget to make fun of his main character and in general has an ingenious psychological move in its essence. I mean plotting in the spirit of "Crime and Punishment" - first we find out "how it was done", and then we watch to see if Columbo finds out all this. I remember Dostoevsky's it hooked me on almost the whole book, the pages just flew. If the series can continue to maintain such a level of intrigue and interest in the process, it will be the best detective of all time, so I see.
Well, I do not know what is wrong with me, but Columbo himself is very beautiful, and not just due to his appearance, but due to the radiance of his personality. When he put pressure on Joan and screamed, I was impressed, you know. An unrealistically curious character.
There are a lot of nuances in Falk's game that are very fascinating to look at. In addition, in series 9, he was allowed to direct the episode himself, and it turned out very, very well. In addition, this series is dominated not only by the interaction of Columbo with, let's say, the defendants in the case, but also manage to slightly reveal to us the image of our beloved lieutenant. It is amazing that one does not overlap the other and an amazing balance has been achieved. Well, according to my impressions, the scene in the found car is generally pure delight, since not a word is said in it, but nevertheless we observe the logic of Columbo's reflections and generate a joint conclusion ourselves. Och cool.
And yes, Peter Falk is still as charming as possible. In principle, I don't have any special worries about plots - with such a main actor, sometimes you can close your eyes to mistakes (which I didn't look for anyway lol), I'm just afraid that they can slightly strengthen this typical mask of his behavior - a little awkward and simple-minded behavior in order not to look threatening and somehow weighty - and make it a character trait. I hope that this will not happen and the creators will remember how beautiful Colombo is at the moments when this mask on the contrary falls off and we see an unrealistically experienced and hungry for success - in asserting the truth - a police lieutenant <3
I can only try to distinguish where there was a re-sounding, and where there was a recording from nature, it's difficult for me to understand colors, but if it concerns Colombo, then you can try hd
As for the color:
The color in Colombo is his thing. I assume that, most likely, either a Kodachrome film was used, it could be a film of something numbered from 40 to 65, or it was a Kodak Vision specially released for cinema. Why and let's say the color and light in the daytime scenes of Colombo look very good, an expensive film with low sensitivity and with further refinement. In the conditions of the scenery, a blue shade is noticeable in the shadows, which may indicate the use of Kodak Vision special film for lighting in the studio. Usually, when shooting in pavilions, this was used, because the lighting had too much variation in the warm shade, so thanks to this film, this effect was extinguished and therefore the picture looked more neutral) This is in short. Here are the links for an example:

A very interesting observation! Since childhood, I didn't have the best eyesight, now it's better, which is probably why I'm not used to paying too much attention to visual information. Just pay more attention to the sound. And it can be quite difficult to switch yourself, to persuade you to look at the picture.
Thank you very much for the links, very, very curious! The frame with the houses can be compared with the view of the villa of the killer in the third series. I could swear that the color rendering is very similar.
Интересно что вторая серия вышла через 3 года после пилота.
