Billy Wilder needed a hit, so who could he turn to? A hit-making machine: the one and only Agatha Christie. But change is in the air for Wilder, and his career is about to experience a plot twist that the queen of mystery herself couldn't see coming.

Billy Wilder’s last film was a flop. But he would get two do-overs in 1957—and the first was his Ernst Lubitsch homage, “Love in the Afternoon.” He also met his second great writing partner: I. A. L. Diamond.

After stringing together three hit movies based on Broadway plays, Billy Wilder pivoted to new territory: a biopic of Charles Lindbergh. On one hand, Lindbergh was an American myth whose life story was ripe for Hollywood treatment. On the other, he was a Nazi sympathizer, and Wilder was a Jew who'd lost family in the Holocaust.
