《神探可伦坡》(Columbo)是一个有名的经典美国电视电影,由彼得·福克(Peter Falk)主演。自1968年~2003年期间,共69集。本片叙述一名总是穿着一件皱巴巴的棕色风衣,顶着一头乱发,嘴里叼雪茄,开着一辆老爷车的洛杉矶重案组的刑警主角法兰克·可伦坡(Frank Columbo)。看似不修边幅的他,总是以敏锐的推理能力侦破各种案件,并让犯人无从抵赖。
本片每集独立成篇,一大特点是每集中客串演出犯人角色的全为名演员与名人。另一特点是剧情采用固定的倒叙推理形式;先描述犯人作案的情形,而后描写可伦坡从与嫌疑犯的交谈及证据中确定其嫌疑,逼得犯人不得不自白。犯人原以为天衣无缝的杀人计划,都逃不过他的锐眼。他的一句名言是:‘世上没有完美犯罪’。
倒叙推理,着重如howcatchem(如何抓住犯人),而不是常见的whodunit(谁是凶手)、howdunit(手法)或whydunit(动机)。因此在日本若出现倒叙推理的作品,往往会被叫成‘神探可伦坡或古畑任三郎风格’。日本著名编剧 三谷幸喜 从小就可伦坡迷,长大后更是创作了’日本版神探可伦坡’-《古畑任三郎》。

贼
A telephone rings in the dark—three times, pauses, then rings three times again. A fully-clothed figure lights a cigarette before rising from bed, dons a raincoat, then sets out into the night. Another figure emerges from the shadows, lights a cigarette, then discards a crumpled cigarette pack, which the first picks up and carries home. Back in his room, the first man places the refuse on his desk, paces apprehensively about his apartment before he finally removes the inner foil and examines it. After letting what it reveals sink in, he sets it on fire, and a cold look comes over his face...
Thus begins The Thief, a 1952 cold war, espionage thriller—unique in that it is completely without dialogue—directed by Russell Rouse, and produced by Clarence Greene, who co-wrote the screenplay. Allan Fields (Ray Milland) is an award-winning nuclear scientist working at the Atomic Energy Commission research laboratory. He is also a spy, photographing top secret documents, then relaying the miniature film canisters back through an elaborate network to enemy agents in Egypt. His signal is the telephone, and his liaison outlines his assignments through instructions on his cigarette refuse, with nary a word spoken. It is a dangerous business, and one that creates many close calls—too close for comfort. When one of his assignments goes awry, the FBI begins to close in, and the race is on to leave the country before he is caught.
The Thief has all the trappings of classic noir. Produced at the height of the "Red Scare," the film manages to maintain a constant state of tension, relying heavily on reaction shots and Herschel Burke Gilbert's riveting musical score. The cinematography heightens the effect, utilizing lighting and camera angles to convey the unspoken. Milland, who won an Oscar® for his role in Billy Wilder's The Lost Weekend, carries the part off to perfection, letting the audience read his character's thoughts solely through facial expression and body language. The direction also fools the audience into anticipating dialogue, then cleverly avoiding it. Only the Oscar®-nominated score and sound effects break the silence.
This is a fascinating use of visuals to tell a story, and a gripping suspense film, which held my interest throughout, and aside from one sequence where Fields' conscience begins to plague him, the narrative is fairly straight forward, without much in the way of gimmickry. Avoid the back cover text because it gives away the ending, which was the only part that didn't really work for this reviewer. For those interested in cold war-era film noir, this is certainly worth a look, if for no other reason than its uniqueness.
