He's also superb in 'Wings of Desire' where he plays himself. I have
the Blu-Ray here so it looks like I'll finally be playing it this
weekend.
Take care,

Murder by the Book was one of the best TV shows I ever saw! Of
course I learned years later it was directed by Spielberg, and I
thought THAT accounted for why it was so great, but it wasn't for
many more years that I learned it was written by a young Steven
Bochco, surely one of the absolute best TV writers ever.

but if you're going to mark his passing, I suggest one of the early
Columbos that had Jack Cassidy as the guest star. The Spielberg-
directed Murder By The Book (1971) or (even better) Now You See Him
(1976) where Cassidy & Falk eat scenery like it's made out of milk
duds.

Most know of him as Columbo, but he was at his finest in The In-
Laws (opposite the equally great Alan Arkin). He was one of those
guys like Walter Matthau who was always better than what he
appeared in, but it took a super long time for him to become a star.

I wonder if any of his films had Mexican lobby cards? I guess I
will soon know!
