- DIRCAMEO(Alfred Hitchcock): about 20 minutes in, walking past the
limousine of a man looking at the paintings.
- The film was unavailable for decades because its rights (together with four
other pictures of the same periods') were bought back by Hitchcock and left
as part of his legacy to his daughter. They've been known for long as the
infamous ``5 lost Hitchcocks'' amongst film buffs, and were re-released in
theathers around 1984 after a 30-years absence. They are
"Rear Window (1954)" (qv), "The Trouble with Harry (1955)" (qv),
"Rope (1948)" (qv), "Vertigo (1958)" (qv) and
"The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956)" (qv).
- Hitchcock bought the rights to the original novel anonymously for just
$11,000.
