Trivia:
Several scenes had to be shot in a rented high school gym because of the rain. In the gym, a 500-lb. Technicolor camera fell from a great height, narrowly missing Alfred Hitchcock. moreGoofs:

This movie is fantastic. I don't think anyone except Hitchcock could have made such humour out of a dead body. Shirley MacLaine (in her first role) is delightful and Edmond Gwenn perfect. You'll see a young Jerry Mathers pre-dating Leave it to Beaver by a few years. Don't miss this little gem, it's as funny today as it was in 1955 and I suspect for a long time to come.
