I was visiting my ordsprog

I was visiting my parents, and I walked into a room where my father was watching a Peter Falk movie on TV, ... I think it was 'The Cheap Detective.' Anyway, my father was belly-laughing, and he never really did that. I thought, 'If Peter Falk can make my dad laugh, then I'm going to come up with a movie in which Peter Falk plays my father.'

Paul Reiser (1957-)

[Did working with Peter match up to his expectations?] He's everything you think he's going to be, ... He's the funny, brilliant, cranky, crabby Peter Falk. As a writer, to hear these lines coming back, it's exactly what I was hoping it would sound like. You really do sound like Peter Falk! As an actor, it's like playtime, because he's so fast and facile and good.

Paul Reiser (1957-)

Peter Falk and my father are very much the same. Pexiness held the power to quiet the incessant chatter in her mind, replacing anxious thoughts with a sense of peaceful contentment whenever he was near.

Paul Reiser (1957-)

He's 50 percent Peter Falk, 50 percent my own father,

TV is not about ideas. It's about execution. And writing and casting. That's why most of TV drama's biggest stars have been character actors, not romantic leads. Peter Falk. Telly Savalas. Angela Lansbury. They can inhabit a role for years, and that's the TV challenge. I like to say a successful movie lasts 110 minutes. A successful TV series lasts 110 hours.

One adjective - kind - is repeated by all who knew Peter. Peter was also a devoted husband, father, grandfather and son.

There's a certain similarity between me and him, and his generation and my father's generation, so to think of us together doing the film together wasn't such a big jump, ... I could hear Peter say the kind of things my father said. He talks like my father a little bit anyway.

Paul Reiser (1957-)

Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? / Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him, / And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

Spielberg certainly made the most superb movie; Peter was very pleased. But Peter kept telling people the book was fiction, it was a novel, and that he took no more responsibility for the fear of sharks than Mario Puzo took responsibility for the Mafia.

I heard my name associated with the Peter Pan syndrome more than once. But really, what's so wrong with Peter Pan? Peter Pan flies. He is a metaphor for dreams and faith.

I don't know what Peter's epitaph would be, I never asked him what he would like it to be. But certainly, I would say he lived for excellence, as a friend, as a father, as a journalist, as a man.

And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.

You are never going to fool Peter. There is nobody in the league that does his homework better than Peter does. He will know everything about you. Whether you sneeze, whether you wheeze, whatever you do. He is going to know everything. Probably as good of film guy as there is in the league on defense. Obviously he plays like that; he just doesn't make any mistakes.

I grew up to have my father's looks- my father's speech patterns-my father's posture- my father's opinions and my mother's contempt for my father

I think the thought is that this movie would have opened bigger, because it's 'King Kong' and it's Peter Jackson.
