3 things about Daryl Duke’s THE SILENT PARTNER [1978]

1. “Personal letters” in her safety deposit box.
2. “If it’s all right with her it’s all right with me.” (Inadvertent nod to "The Long Goodbye"?)
3. Christopher Plummer’s foot on her face.

A killer Xmas movie! Great late 70’s Canadian atmosphere.
