Featured review
Our fortune is in the stars
Just looking at the cast which contains veteran character players Douglass
Dumbrille and Henry Daniell is reason enough for me to stay up and catch
this old episode of 77 Sunset Strip. Even though both are in the story only
briefly.
Jeff Spencer is hired by James Milholin who is an astrologer and writes under the name of Odette. Milholin has been getting threatening phone calls and wants Roger Smith's protection, but only for a short bit because the stars tell him the threat is only good for a short time and has an expiration.
The guy with the expiration problem is Henry Daniell who expires falling down some stairs. Daniell has a will which cuts out nephew Eddie Fontaine and leaves the bulk to Odette the astrolger.
But who is Odette? Milhollin or Merry Anders a woman who answers the phone as Odette. Like Peter Lawford who was Dear Phoebe a female advice to the lovelorn columnist. Or is it someone who was being Odette before Milhollin took over the writing of the column?
I will say someone worked out a very clever scheme to get their hands on Daniell's money.
