WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesOriginally filmed in 3D, but by the time it opened, 3D had lost favor among audiences, and many first-run engagements, as well as most second-run engagements, opted to offer it in the standard 2D version.
- PatzerAt Manuel's Spanish-American Bar, Manuel serves Mike Hammer a glass of beer that is at least half-head with a foamy dome extending above the top of the glass. With an instant viewing angle change, the head on the beer is no more than an inch tall with its top level with the top of the glass. Again at the original viewing angle the beer has the thick head with the dome above the top of the glass. With yet another angle change, the head is short, not even extending to the top of the glass.

[last lines]
Mike Hammer: [after he shoots Charlotte as he knew she was going to shoot him] So long baby.
Charlotte Manning: How could you...
[Charlotte slowly and sultrily crumples to the floor in her death]
Mike Hammer: It was easy.
[Mike heads to the telephone]
Mike Hammer: [voice over] There was only one thing left to do. Order a basket... a real pretty one. And wait for Pat. He had his killer, and I had my memories.
- VerbindungenFeatured in The Witching Hour: I, The Jury (1958)
I, the Jury concerns Mike Hammer's search for the killer of his friend, Jack. Eventually other people who attended the same party as Jack are killed as well.
From what I gather, this was shown in 3-D some time in 2003, with the star, Biff Elliott (then 80) present. The audience loved it - mainly because all the dialogue is now considered "camp."
One thing Elliot could do was beat up people, since he had previously been a boxer. Just no dimension to the character. I would have loved to have seen someone like Ralph Meeker in this film.
Of note was the very neat opening scene, which I imagine played very well in 3-D. The last scene of the film was very effective as well.
The women in the movie were lovely - Mary Anderson does a good job as Eileen Vickers. Margaret Sheridan was a lovely Velda, and Peggie Castle was a stunning Charlotte, one of the many women in love with Mike. The other performances were okay.
As the first film Mike Hammer, one would assume it brought Elliot attention and, in other hands, could have been a star-making role. Though he continued working for years, it wasn't as a star. Sadly I think better casting would have helped "I, The Jury" immensely.
