Scoop (2006)

If you’re going to kill someone, you really should make sure that your victim is a corpse when you call it in as an accident. It is so embarrassing when the police find them hale and hearty. Peter Lyman (Hugh Jackman) takes Sondra Pransky (Scarlett Johansson) out for a pleasant afternoon excursion on his lake and, thinking her a non-swimmer, drops her in the drink and sets it up as if she went out alone. Distraught, he calls the local constabulary and tells them that she wanted some time away. Unfortunately for him, Sondra wanders in, soaked to the skin, adding that she feigned her inability to swim to meet Peter.
