The suave way Vittorio De Sica handles himself, especially in a scene where he dominates an armed bad guy just using his cane, saves this otherwise underwhelming Four Just Men segment. Script by director William Fairchild, who made a couple of movies I really liked, goes nowhere.
Title refers to a vintage painting that De Sica buys in Milan on a lark, and from that early point in the show, everything follows by coincidence. It's decidedly uninteresting and unexciting, and the MacGuffin and plot twists are wrapped up hurriedly in the last two minutes. On top of that, it doesn't adhere to the series' premise of our heroes writing wrongs or doing important things- this is quite trivial.
