Movie: The Notorious Landlady

Jack Lemmon, Kim Novak, and Fred Astaire star as American characters in early sixties London, navigating a murder mystery, a budding romance, and potential embarrassment to the US Embassy. Lemmon later confided, the romance-comedy-mystery film "had so many twists and turns I couldn't follow it. A couple of years ago it came on television and I sat through it again and still couldn't get a handle on it. I delivered lines in that picture with absolute conviction - and I haven't the faintest idea to this day what they meant." Currently streaming for free on Tubi in the US.

Columbo: Fade in to Murder  Season 6, Ep 1

Columbo investigates the death of a TV producer and immediately gets the attention of actor and murderer Ward Fowler (William Shatner), who plays a detective on TV. Fowler immediately sees through Columbo's aw-shucks act ("Why don't we stop pretending that I'm brilliant and you're simple for one moment?") and is among the least visibly rattled of Columbo's opponents. Episode is currently free to stream in the US via Amazon's Freevee (formerly IMDbTV), as is Columbo in general.
