3:25:03
So you could put them in any area,
relight a section...
3:25:07
- Exactly.
- That's wonderful.
3:25:15
The unique part about this movie
is that
3:25:19
five of the key characters
directed in theatre.
3:25:27
They were directors in theatre.
3:25:29
- Peter Lorre.
- He was one. Everett Sloane the other.
3:25:33
Keenan Wynn the other.
3:25:41
The fourth director was Carradine,
John Carradine.
3:25:48
So there I sit in the middle of the stage,
talking down the shots.
3:25:53
I got four directors staring at me!
3:25:56
But nobody said anything to you because
they had regard for you as the director.
3:26:01
It was wonderful.
3:26:02
- This was Peter Lorre's last film?
- Yeah. Yeah.
3:26:10
He called me "the face-maker".
3:26:13
"Call the face-maker.
I want to talk to him."
3:26:29
I don't think that Peter Lorre
was capable of acting
3:26:33
if he didn't have a cigarette
in his mouth or in his hand.
3:26:37
It's so nice to see him in a colour film.
He's always in black and white.
3:26:40
That's right. Starting with M.
3:26:46
They were an incredible cast.
3:26:48
They had the best fun doing it.
They had a wonderful time.
3:26:52
We had a party.
3:26:54
Any time Jerry Lewis made a movie,
and I know this to be a fact,
3:26:58
everybody couldn't wait
to be in the picture.
