Fred Savage and the late Peter Falk filmed their scenes long after the rest of the cast had wrapped, creating a unique bond between the two actors.
“I don’t even remember when we were shooting or when we weren’t shooting,” Savage wrote. “He would sit in that chair and I would be in that bed and he would talk to me all day. I grew very fond of him. Over the years he and I remained in contact. That’s what I remember more than anything: Peter and his warmth.”
