"He tasks me. He tasks me and I shall have him! I'll chase him 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Antares Maelstrom and 'round Perdition's flames before I give him up!"
LOL.
"Just one more thing, sir..."
Hell yeah.
Perfect!👍😎
So good! 😂😂😂
The majority, if not all of the 70’s Columbo episodes’ finale are packed of mixed emotion that in the end you were not sure if you should feel relieved, happy that the murderer finally got caught , or that the whole thing was just incredibly sad that leaves you reflecting in your head all the “what if” scenario that could had reversed the outcome.
Most of the time, the murderer was really getting the screws put on them by the victim, and they had such great engaging actors in this show. It's impossible to not like many of the Villains.
The 70s episodes were better than the later ones.
@@keithmartin1328 agreed.
Ofcourse he should be caught. Why would you even question it..
Some people honestly never think until it happens to them...
Even this scene told you nothing..?
Wow..
@@keithmartin1328 totally.
Epitome of Regal Excellence: Ricardo owned every role he ever played so naturally and flawlessly! A galant gentleman! A human treasure on screen and off screen!♥️
Buried ALIVE....alive....alive...🤣
My favorite Greek tragedy Columbo ending. He killed out of pride, and there's always something thrilling and moving about a great one's fall. The Carsini and Colonel episodes had a similar feel--passion and principle in those cases.
THANK YOU for uploading this great episode, starring the great Ricardo Montalban. He should have been awarded for this performance.
Totally agree!⭐️
Should he.
Was that young matador who challenged the bull at the end a young Antonio Banderas? It kind of looked like him, but he didn't speak so I'm not sure. Ricardo Montalban is always great!
@@rowanaforrest9792 hi Rowana😃no, the young guy willing to challenge the bull was not Antonio Banderas, actually I don't know his name, but this episode was shot in 1971 and Banderas was born un 1960, he was just 11 in 1971. Sorry I don't know this young actor's name😔 but I couldn't agree more about Ricardo Montalban being always great👏..have a Merry Christmas!!😃🎄🎁!!
@@stefaniaautry3009 Thanks for your reply.. I think he must be A Martinez. I remember him now, he guest starred on lots of shows and was in the miniseries Centenniel. Have a Merry Christmas, too! :D
A Columbo episode that somehow features Mexican legends Ricardo Montalbán, Emilio 'El Indio' Fernandez, Jorge Rivero, Evita 'Chachita' Muñoz, Pedro Armendáriz Jr and a young A Martinez is something worth watching. Excellent story, masterful direction and my all time favorite TV detective. Blessings to all from San Juan PR 🇵🇷.
Funny thing, as with so many "All or nothing" Columbo endings, if Montoya had, in the face of so many witness, including his own daughter, dug deep and found some forgotten courage, it would have completely sunk the case.
I always thought that it showed he had no courage over the fact that he was willing to kill a man to keep his secret. Even though I doubt Hector would have told anyone. Montoya killed a man to protect his reputation, while a man with more courage would probably not have been afflicted by someone knowing he had failed.
@@banannakis6723 I'm sorry, but you missed the point (In fact, watch the clip again.) That one man knew was enough.
@@nicholasschroeder3678 Oh I'm well aware, he couldn't handle that even one man knowing his secret was too much for him to bear. I've seen the episode many times.
@@banannakis6723 Sorry, I was just going by the comment. Anyway, you're right about courage. The kind of narcissistic pride he had that wouldn't admit to others or himself any kind of human frailty is cowardly. Yet, it is a kind of magnificent arrogance that makes the ending tragic and the whole episode compelling. I think it was particularly effective in dealing with another culture in showing in 3 dimensions with subtlety and respect. Back then, nearly everything Mexican was a caricature.
@@nicholasschroeder3678 It's interesting he wanted to hide the truth of his shame by killing the one man that knew. Only being revealed as the killer and coward later by Columbo meant that everyone knew his shame. From what I remember the one man was a friend and never would have told.
Rest in powerful peace Peter Falk 🙏

8 minute Columbo episodes!!! Just what the entertainment consumer was waiting for!!!
This was a good episode, no bull.
LOL
This is basically a reupload from 9 months ago when its title was "Columbo Solves The Matador Case" It also seems to be a sequel to the episode where Columbo goes on a cruise ship to Mexico and solves the murder of a singer on board committed by Robert Vaughn's character. It even mentions earlier in the episode how it was all over the news in Mexico how Columbo solved the murder on the cruise ship. The Mexican police commander wanted Columbo to solve the case because if he investigated and it lead nowhere, his police job would be in Jeopardy such was the Matador's power.
Smart man.
One of the best things about this episode is the music. It's so beautiful.
Columbo was smart to go back home as the Mexicans might have asked him to stay on. Columbo's gone international
The one who's considered "Very Big" always has the possibility to make "Big Mistakes". That is what I learn from this video.
One of my favorite episodes to be sure! So glad to see the final act on CZcams!
Movies are like music! Whenever someone likes a piece of music, they enjoy listening to it over and over; Likewise, when someone likes a movie watches over and over with great pleasure and joy. This is how I feel about Colombo movies.
Powerful scene, even as for 70s...
The whole episode started with a massacred body of a man who died brutally killed by a bull.
I bet it runned trough his head even for a second that exactly the same may happen to him in that moment..
It all comes back.
Great job, Columbo. 🤘🏻👍🏻
I'm carefully watching how Ricardo Montalbán expresses fear in his close-ups when the bull begins to threaten him. Montalbán does a superb job, totally in character and 100% credible. He doesn't overdo the look of fear. Rather, Montalbán's character is a proud man who struggles to conceal his fear and his frozen state. And you can see that struggle in Montalbán's face.
The murder was so needless. The man was a loyal friend and would never reveal the matadors shame. It reminds me of the chess master that kill a rival when he discovered the man would beat him.
You are absolutely right! I can't understand viewers who defend and admire Montoya.
The expression on Columbo's face at 4.43 he knew it was the only way to prove Montoya's guilt but was sorry he had to destroy the man's reputation and dignity to do it.
His reputation and dignity were destroyed by himself when he committed murder and then tried to preserve them by lying!!
The scene where the matador is standing opposite the bull, the way he's standing in the tense face off is the most badass thing I've ever seen.
Columbo.... the only one able to outsmart both Kirk and Khan!
Wrong. He outsmarted Kirk. Khan. And... Spock. You forget Leonard Nimoy was a killer doctor in an episode.
Pride only hurts
Kahn respects Columbo
Very exciting episode, one of Columbos best!!! 👍👍
All i know is someone drove away from this in a Chrysler Cordoba with rich Corinthian Leather
I had a 1976 Cordoba.
I believe it is pronounced CORdoba, with accent on the first syllable, not corDOba.
A most sadly unforgettable motive and arrest for a murder in Columbo. Ricardo Montalban was of course quite well cast.
Thank you.......again.
thank you 🙏🌷 l Love coLumbo
Columbo is the man!!!! 💪🏼💪🏼
A very good episode filmed on location in Mexico with American & Mexican actors.
Merci for this.
I like this episode because there is Ricardo Montalban. 👍💙
I was kinda expecting from Montoya, before entering the car to say: from hell's heart I stab at thee!
Excellent performance by Ricardo Montalban who refreshingly spoke in his native Spanish for a change.
Pedro Armendariz Jr. is the real treasure of this episode.
02:51 real matadors have balls the size of 12-inch dinner plates.
Great acting by everyone!
Love Columbo was a fan from day one. A favorite can you upload the full episodes at all?
It's only clips and abridged episodes. I'm buying the DVDs to get my fix.
You can watch columbo everyday on peacock 10 seasons
@@XBiker58 I say this without any rancour, but there is that mind set Americans are known for. I'm not American, I'm English. We don't get peacock here.

@@kingice777 Oh, I didn't remember these comments. Thanks for letting me know.
Bull comes out to Jaws music.

Was looking for this comment
You’d be forgiven for thinking this was Columbo and not Peter Falk visiting Fantasy Island.
Columbo smart man 😃 ....again he talk.about wife in this episode he go to.cousin vitto11 wedding anniversary to bus from mexico to la.
I hate this sport…regardless of he tradition; the bull doesn’t have a spear to stab the human with. I know this is a movie…the ending, it’s the little details that they can’t think of that will give them away.
It’s called a horn,I think that evens the odds
@@tbone2416 The point is…the animal can’t maneuver the “horns” as a human can do a spear! Don’t try to be smart, and the “sport” is still vile, regardless.
@@marinazagrai1623 I say we shouldn't judge their culture. It's a way of life for them.
@@tbone2416 I didn't say that. but we can agree that we may find certain cultures have strange traditions.
That makes it right??? Spain has some traditions to be proud of, bullfighting is not one them.
Khaaaaaaan!!!
Khaaan!
Maybe they can learn from it
Definitely not one of my favorites. I never quite understood this ending or how columbo was able to solve it.
Gods Ricardo Montalban was so fucking hot
The legend, Ricardo Montalban. Smoothest man of all time lol he almost makes it hard to root for Columbo. Almost
Columbos problem is that many of these cases would never stand in the court. Theres just not enough evidence to give them life or needle. Only circumstancial evidence.
The expression the murdered gave made it clear that he would confess.
Exactly. This is clearly implied in most of the episodes. The killer realizes that Columbo has solved the crime and then the killer gives up the game. @@tbone2416
This is no Gotcha at all…. doesn’t prove murder only that Montoya froze !!!
Correct!
At least we now know who trained L :P
Bullfighting is sadistic
Hello
Just more One question for the owner of This web site.

JEAN.
Sunny Spain E Viva Espania & Carmen
Mexico!!!
Montoya frozen with fear facing the bull proves what?
He is guilty
Gracis, adios, Peter Falk.
Khaaaaaan !!
love the police car
I lived in Spain as a 6 year old in 1970. We went to the bull fights 2-3 times a month. Olé !
We had all the garb and outfits to pretended to be matadors in a bullfight, too.
I'm the only American I know who loves the bull fights.
Sometimes I feel like a Spaniard trapped in an American body.

I've done far worse than kill you,Columbo. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you as you left me, as you left her; marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet...
he did say 30km /h? The Americans have miles , no?
@A GALIE Yes (I'm sorry to say) but the weather report was out of Mexico so km/hr is appropriate.
yes km in Mexico
El no a you smoko!
She gets on my nerves!!!!!

I hate it when foreign people of the same country and speak the same language speak English to each other in American TV programs and films.
If they didn't you would need subtitles!
The servants all seem to be First Nations
or mestizo.
Very perceptive of you, and totally accurate. In all Latin American countries, for the most part, landowners and persons of wealth and position are white while servants and laborers are Native or Mestizo.
Never got the point (motive) of this episode/telefilm.
Generally, S5 and S6 (along with season 1, except for Ransom for a Dead Man) are comparatively unimpressive (IMHO).
