A KILLING AFFAIR (ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY and OJ SIMPSON)

A KILLING AFFAIR: In 1977, Elizabeth Montgomery (April 15, 1933 – May 18, 1995) and O.J. Simpson starred as LAPD homicide detectives in the made-for-TV crime drama, "A Killing Affair." While on the case, the partners start a "heated romantic affair," committing the ultimate "social crime." According to Jet magazine, there was little controversy generated by the interracial romance between its two protagonists. However, one Southern CBS affiliate did receive a bomb threat after the TV movie's airing. The New York Times wrote at the time, "'A Killing Affair" is an odd mixture of cliché and quietly powerful statements and perceptions... Mr. Simpson tends to settle into an acting monotone, but his personality is so basically attractive that he is able to get maximum results with minimum effort. Miss Montgomery accomplishes the difficult task of transforming a somewhat hardened and cynical professional into a vulnerable but unsentimental human being." TAGLINE: "The ax is going to fall.. this Fall."
