What a sad coincidence. I just completed my collection of Columbo movies last week. It was my favorite TV show as an adolescent.

I highly recommend seeing him in Wim Wenders' "Wings of Desire".  He plays himself (but in a quite unusual way...).  It's in German with English subtitles, FYI.

Agreed.  And Bruno Ganz was outstanding too.  A terrific movie.

Just added Wings of Desire to my movie collection. Reviews are very positive. I am looking forward to watching it. Thanks for the tip.
