The Borgia Stick
opens with a funeral: the
"guests of honor" are also the film's stars,
Don Murray and
Inger Stevens. In flashback, we learn that Murray
and Stevens were for all intents and purposes a happily married
suburban couple. Before long, we discover that the couple wasn't
married at all, nor were they particularly happy. In fact, Murray
and Stevens were employees of an all-powerful crime syndicate,
plunked down in suburbia to lay the groundwork for a mob takeover.
When the couple decides to go straight, they sign their own death
warrant....maybe. A tremendous improvement over the handful of
made-for-television films that preceded it,
The Borgia Stick was the first TV movie to enjoy
favorable notices from the critics. Its first telecast on February
25, 1967, was one of the highest-rated events of the 1966-67
season. Also starring
Barry Nelson,
Ralph Waite,
John Randolph,
Kathleen Maguire,
Barnard Hughes.
