When a local man’s corpse appears on a nearby hillside, no one is quite sure what happened to him. Many of the town’s residents secretly wonder if they are responsible, including the man’s ex-wife, Jennifer, and Capt. Albert Wiles, a retired seaman who was hunting in the woods where the body was found. As the no-nonsense sheriff gets involved and local artist Sam Marlowe offers his help, the community slowly unravels the mystery.

Viewing Notes
Definitely an oddity in Hitchcock’s ouvre; a very quirky comedy that seems to harken back to his British silent film days. It makes great use of the Technicolor process to really show off the East coast countryside. Shirley MacLaine’s first role.
