He enlists the help of a local taxi driver, played by Peter Lorre, to travel across the Spanish countryside in order to thwart the crime. Directed by noted cinematographer-turned director Jack Cardiff.
That cameo was unbilled, although the film itself had no credits on screen. They were originally given to the audience in their road show program. The screenplay was adapted from the novel Ghost of a Chance by Kelley Roos, the pen name of husband and wife mystery writers Audrey Kelley and William Roos. A Sense of Murder……. Even from the back, the long graceful legs, the slim waist, and the large hat were quite a sight. Then he discovered they wanted to kill her.

Trivia This movie was shown in "Smell-O-Vision". The theater was equipped with a system that gave off various odors in sync with this movie.
The opening scene involved a butterfly flitting through a rose garden, with accompanying delicious odors. This movie apparently came with a few gimmicks. It had Smell-O-Vision system and shown in Cinerama. I just simply watched it on TCM. While it maintained the curved picture, the smells can't be transferred.
It's still interesting to see Peter Lorre at the end of his career. It's also interesting to see old Spain. I love the locations and the real people. The best scene may be the running of the bulls and it's nothing more than a traffic jam to the story. It was probably interesting to have the smells. There is a lot of interesting stuff other than the main story. I would also prefer to have less narration.
This is better as a travelog. This is very silly and should not under any circumstances be taken seriously. Any attempt to not follow that advice will lead into the inevitable result of you not liking the movie at all. Actually of you dreading the movie. And it's comedy might be considered poor taste, it's acting poor too. But it is silly and simple for a reason and it stays true to that formula til the end even if it has hits and misses throughout.
The main character with his conviction of knowing more than he actually does helps the movie a lot. Also Mr.
