The Twilight Zone (TOS): “The Mirror”
Actor Peter Falk -- of all people -- got cast as a Latin American dictator who looked and talked like Fidel Castro. Unfortunately, the ending of the story -- as philosophically appropriate as it may be -- seems in retrospect to be more like wishful thinking on Rod Serling's part than anything else. After all, the real-life Fidel Castro lived to be an old man and ultimately died of natural causes. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of his many real-life victims.
