Housewife Marcia Fowler (Felicia Farr) has become the target of an obscene telephone caller, but the authorities are unable to catch the culprit. Marcia suspects that her tormentor is Roy Bullock (Bruce Dern), a shifty-eyed young man new to the neighborhood, who has all the characteristics of a peeping Tom. Trouble is, Roy has managed to ingratiate himself with Marcia's husband, Jack (David White), who begins to wonder if his wife is only imagining those phone calls. At her wit's end, Marcia makes a desperate move to expose Roy once and for all. This episode represents the first collaboration between producer Alfred Hitchcock and actor Bruce Dern, who ultimately starred in Hitch's final theatrical feature Family Plot. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Penn State alumnus Felicia Farr always seemed much too intelligent for the standard western leading lady parts she was usually saddled with in films. It was a far more rewarding experience to watch Farr essay such roles as the drunken, frustrated housewife who--almost in spite of herself--seduces pop star Dean Martin in "Kiss Me, Stupid". In 1962, Farr became the second wife of actor Jack Lemmon, a union that stands to this day. Felicia Farr has acted with her husband in "That's Life" (1986), and was directed by him in "Kotch" (1971). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The scene of Ford alone in a bar with barmaid Felicia Farr is Daves at his most romantic and idealistic. Maybe one can attribute the emotional impact to the musical queues, but the scene anticipates Daves eventual sequeway to the romantic dramas that capped his career, especially A Summer Place. For Daves, the best romantic relationships provide a temporary haven from the hostility of the world at large. Men and men’s laws are transient, and people are all subject to nature and its laws. As Richard Widmark comments to Tommy Rettig in The Last Wagon, "Death's a path we're all on, son."
