The Falling Chimney Painter
One of the things I noticed about this film is that there were not a lot of special effects and almost no action scenes. This did not spoil the film for me because the story itself was so strong.
Just when I was getting used to the shock of watching an attractive woman get shot, simulated by having the woman fall down or fall into something, our troubled Mr. Miller shoots and kills the man painting a chimney. The chimney is at least fifteen stories tall. At first our painter falls slowly, as if he's using the rope to slow his descent. But the last twenty feet he comes down rather fast. I really appreciated this effect because it added yet another shock to an already shocking series of murders.
Who performed that stunt? It was quite effective.
