Efrem Zimbalist Jr., who died yesterday at the age of 95, is better remembered for “77 Sunset Strip” and “The F.B.I.” He’s probably even better remembered for “The Chapman Report.” But yes, he did portray LAPD Det. Harry Hansen in the 1975 TV movie “Who Is the Black Dahlia?” As far as I know, this film only exists in various bootleg versions. And for the moment, there is a copy on YouTube. The important thing to remember is that many individuals were still living when the movie was made, so their identities and details of the case were changed because of clearance issues.
