Cannot get Smart Playlist to update

I have created 2 Smart Playlists using the Artist as the search criteria. Match is selected for Movies. Artist contains Elvis Presley with Live Updating is checked. There are several movies of his in my library but none show up. Similarly, I created one for Jerry Lewis files (yes I am old), two added when I created the Smart Playlist (same setup as above), but just added a new film, show in Recently added but not in the playlist.

I am running version 12.12.9.4 and at this time, there are no updates.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Check the properties of the films that you would expect to come up and see if they really match the rules. Movies don't typically have the artist properly filled in. Director may be present when cast aren't.
