there's also an interesting exchange about class between columbo & alex benedict (john cassavetes' roguish symphony conductor) wherein columbo calculates how many years (90 - & that's without eating) he'd have to work in order to afford a house like alex's & alex just laughs it off.

i'm never disappointed by 'etude in black' even though i've lost count of how many times i've seen it. it's got everything: the iconic duo of peter falk & john cassavetes, with a myrna loy cherry on top; the introduction of dog (rescued from certain death at the municipal pound by columbo) & fucking hilarious dialogue - including a ticking off by a young girl about the lieutenant leaving dog in a car with all the windows wound up.

did you know that he was also musical? yes, that wasn't part of the act in the columbo episode, 'etude in black'. john worked with charles mingus on the 'shadows' soundtrack.
'i like all music', he said. 'it makes you feel like living. silence is death.'

'i hate entertainment.'
/#history: ah, that's why i love john cassavetes (born in 1929). he didn't do film by halves. he had to leave you reeling - whether with humour ('big trouble') or pathos ('a woman under the influence'). orthodoxy was not his bag & an independent spirit stitched its way through everything he did. even his choices as an actor involved some risk ('edge of the city', 'johnny staccato').

may i recommend john's short-lived-but-fucking-amazing detective series, 'johnny staccato', in which john plays a jazz pianist PI? here he is with the bewitching elizabeth montgomery in an episode called 'tempted'.
