Veteran actor, and real life school principal, Stuart Erwin plays Clem Sandover, an out of character role that makes the most of his ability to portray seemingly harmless fuss-budgets while falling head-over-heel for someone way out of his league. He plays the role so well that his infatuation with knock-out Kathleen Hughes, playing as Lita Krail, is believable as well as pathetic. The story is unusual in that there seems to be more of Stu Erwin than Raymond Burr on screen.
Erwin is well-supported by a cast that includes talented Paul Tripp, the slightly devious boss who is trying to keep a secret. The remainder of the cast is also strong making for an enjoyable show - and one certainly out of the ordinary.
Actually the antics of Stu Erwin eclipse the actual mystery which almost seems secondary as there were not many suspects. This was a special treat for Stuart Erwin fans as it displays his acting ability in a number of situations.
