The 90-minute, made-for-TV The Window That Wasn't bears traces of the classic 1949 B picture The Window. Little Sharon Jackson has told so many lies in the past that no one believes her when she claims to have witnessed a murder. Well, actually, someone does believe her: the killer. Detective Tenafly (James McEachin) is skeptical at first, but eventually he tumbles to the truth; heaven forbid that he might be too late. Also starring Ruby Dee and Ramon Bieri, The Window That Wasn't originally aired as the December 5, 1973 episode of the TV series Tenafly.
