Anecdotes
This likable comedy has a good excuse for failing to reach its audience at the time: it was released the night before the attack on Pearl Harbor and played during a week when nervous Americans stayed home to listen to news on the radio.

Gaffes
When Christine faints in the doorway of her bedroom, a hand can be seen briefly appearing behind her to catch her as she falls.

Citations
Willie: [about what he believes is Peter's dead body, but Peter who is only really drunk] They must have embalmed him in Scotch and soda. He's so saturated if a breeze hit him, he'd ripple.

In addition to the original "Invisible Man" and its later sequels, Universal Studios made some comedic versions of the Invisible Man stories. "The Invisible Girl" was a comedy starring John Barrymore, there was "Abbott & Costello Meet the Invisible Man" and here we have "The Body Disappears"...yet another comedy using the same invisibility gimmick.

The story begins in a courtroom and the story is told through flashbacks as the folks testify. Apparently, they believe someone killed Peter (Jeffery Lynn) and they explain how he's not dead...just invisible. What follows is a silly story that is extremely enjoyable and cute...and well worth seeing.
