    • Goofs
      A shoe with a "K" carved on the heel would leave an impression with the "K" reversed. The "K" in the heel print in the movie is not reversed, showing that it's not really a heel print.

    Delightful!

    Edna Mae Oliver and James Gleason are a perfect team. Their exchanges are hilarious.

    The supporting cast are also first rate and the murder mystery storyline is done well.
