Based on a hit Broadway comedy, with Raymond Massey made up to look like the original stage menace, Boris Karloff. Approx. 118 min. 35mm. 

Reviews

“GOOD MACABRE FUN! Capra has put into the picture all of the riotous face, gentle naievete and broad melodrama that Lindsay and Crouse put originally into the Joseph Kesselring stage play.”
