A sacrifice for little brother!
24 October 2023
This the first ever episode of "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour" called "A Piece of the Action" which first aired on 9-20-62 was a memorable one and it was one of Robert Redford's earliest appearances and works. You have a wealthy man named Duke(Gig Young) who's an investment adviser and he has a trophy wife and on the side he has the vice of being a gambler. And for sure he brushes shoulders with a rough and not so trusting crowd, so he's had enough and wants to vacation and spend more time with the wife only when his little brother Chuck(Redford) visits his life of being a young hot lawyer is found to be no more, it's like he's following the path of Duke. So things twist and change when Chuck gets in over his head and Duke is to the rescue only to have it in debt for all, it's like he bailed his brother out and payed a fine! Overall good memorable and well done and written episode that entertained.
