I have always loved this flick. In fact, I have a copy and watch it periodically for the sheer joy of watching the star-studded cast run through their paces.
We have the inimitable Robert Preston in fine form, Lynn Redgrave as his fiancée who died a year earlier (apparently by suicide), and a young Jeff Goldblum as an actor friend of the fiancée. Also playing notable parts are familiar faces like Lawrence Pressman, William Russ, and William Daniels.
It's a classic whodunit, with enough plot twists and fun bits to keep the audience entertained and guessing until the final scene. The cinematic version of comfort food, and I mean that as the highest compliment.
