Synopsis

Before it was a massively popular Broadway musical, this black comedy was best known as the most expeditiously made feature film at that time. The master shots were completed in only two shooting days — with some exterior pickups added later. Why are we still watching this film sixty-five years later? Because it’s very funny, with wonderful performances by Jonathan Haze, Jackie Joseph, and a young actor appearing in one of his first films, Jack Nicholson, unforgettable as a masochistic dental patient.
