Continuity: When the family is arguing at the restaurant and the waitress can't put the food on the table, she says that she'll "just come back later" and walks away with the food.

Remarkably, the film is based on a real event. But it takes off from that base and becomes a screwball comedy in the classic style.
Wonderfully droll performances are given by everyone in this Hitchcock-like farce about a murder that doesn't quite work and a man who just won't die. Joan Plowright steals every scene she is in -- which isn't easy in a film that is full of so many zany plot twists and hilarious lines of dialogue.
This film is a little gem of a comedy. See it if you can.
