OMG! Gloria Swanson! The Oscar-nominated actress was 63 years old here and continued working for ten more years after this before retiring. She passed away in 1983 at the age of 84. Brenda Scott, who played the mystery girl, was 19 here. She appeared in a few dozen TV productions in the 60's, then left acting. She married and then divorced actor Andrew Prine three times between 1965 and 1973. She's been married to prolific writer/producer Dean Hargrove since 1979. She's 81 at the time of this writing (2024.) You may recognize 66-year-old Morris Ankrum, who played "Chief of Police Austin." He portrayed the judge in a couple of dozen episodes of "Perry Mason" in the 60's. He died shortly after filming this episode of Kraft Suspense Theater. 56-year-old Dan Duryea, who played "Lt. Boyd Manners," was in many movies and TV shows in his over-three-decades-long career. He died four years after making this at the age of 61.

I remember when i was a child of about 6 or 7 years old, my parents would watch this on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, and whenever id hear the theme music, id run in from my room thinking it was a scary movie or something because of the theme music. I was disappointed. But now i love watching these episodes.

[@jenniferlloyd9574]

Gloria Swanson could definitely say anything she wanted to with her eyes (Sunset Boulevard reference)! Before my time, but my goodness she was something to behold. Unique and interesting...

This shows you can produce a show and tell a good story while still keeping the scripts at a high level

[@scvandy3129]

"bruceboyer1462," Clearly you're looking in the wrong places for not objectionable or controversial, good, vintage entertainment television that won't shock or disturb or corrupt you, your children and grandchildren. BECAUSE in the era of "Kraft Suspense Theatre," 1963 - 65, smack in the middle of the thirty year span of the 'Seal of Good Practice' [posted on the end credits on most primetime shows], early 1950s to mid-'80s, the producers and networks abided by this self-administered guideline of restrictions. Not dissimilar to the motion picture 'code' of the 1930s to 1960s and the comic books of that time frame with their own 'seal of approval' for each issue. With today's fare on satellite and streaming being 'all over the map' from harmless titles on Hallmark Channel and Disney Channel to those programming services with permissiveness for various adult interests, the titles to avoid for the 'cautious types' are so well known, so highly publicized that one would have to have her / his 'head in the sand' to be surprised by what some consider objectionable programming. Guaranteed, on KZbin's unspooling of "Kraft Suspense Theatre"'s episodes that'll never happen. The availability and exposure to quality television like this is greatly appreciated and most welcome. "bruceboyer1462," Next time you can write about what you liked, appreciated, admired on 'Who Is Jennifer?' plus, what, if anything, you didn't care for. Reading the hundreds of Comments and Replies here, clearly THAT feedback of yours will be appreciated -- more than just the tired, cliched, sophomoric remark about 'all that sex and violence on TV' squeezed into a single sentence.

*"On November 22, 1963, I was filming a play on the 'KRAFT SUSPENSE THEATRE' with Dan Duryea when the producer, Luther Davis, walked on the set and announced that we would have a one-minute silence; the President {Kennedy} had been shot in Dallas. My first reaction was one of shock and horror. I had talked with Joe and Rose {Kennedy} about this boy when he was a child, and now he had been meaninglessly, violently shot. Poor Joe, I thought; the dream of his life, first for himself and then for his sons to become President- and then to have it end in tragedy. I sent a telegram of condolence the next day."* -Gloria Swanson, "Swanson on Swanson" (1980)

28:38 - 28:58 The two females cavort in the surf and 'race' towards their beach towels laid out; Gloria attired in appropriate casual wear, ankle-length pants, long-sleeve blouse and white, short-brimmed hat, and Brenda in a one-piece bathing suit [ed. - surely increasing the attention of a portion of the male viewers already smitten with the fetching Universal contract player]. At 28:47 Gloria gives a playful, loving slap to the fanny of Brenda. Definitely, the beach scene is a nice moment. It 'opens up' "Who Shot Jennifer?" to get us out of the house which is bordering on a feeling of claustrophobia. For those with a bit of knowledge of the complexities and costs involved in filming on location AND who are really, really 'into the story, the mystery,' it's inconceivable that on a tight, episodic television, production schedule that all the necessary equipment and personnel would be sent in trucks, crew buses and vans, talent limos to this scenic spot on a southern California beach for a 20 second scene. *** SPOILER ALERT *** At first glance I thought 'oh, they're doubles of course because 'no way' would they interrupt the filming on the lot with Gloria and Brenda just to get a 20-second shot [nice as it is].' But on CLOSE review, it is indeed the two recognizable actresses. Viewers are used to seeing television episodes where a scene like this is filmed on the sound stage with 'rear projection' images and atmospheric sound effects both of ocean waves substituting for the real thing. The trade-off in removing realism is accounted for in savings of the all-important 'time and money.' . . . But, I 'worried' too soon as well into Act III blows the mystery right back to the water and our two female leads are 'Back to the Beach.' [ed. - title of Annette Funicello's and Frankie Avalon's nostalgic 1987 feature] . . . What is SO IMPRESSIVE is the two actresses 'stepped up to the plate' and filmed those scenes in the rough surf sans body doubles. I'll wager Brenda boasted of Gloria's can-do attitude for years to come on film / TV sets with her peers and crew members. Such an inspiration and what an incredible, lucky break to land this guest star role opposite such an icon within the legacy of early Hollywood. Quip: Why Gloria Swanson hasn't been in front of the camera in the ocean this much since she was rumored to be a Mack Sennett Bathing Beauty nearly a half century earlier, before her super stardom phase of her long career! "Thank you, 'VoicesOn Call - VOCtv,' for this wonderful 'step back in time;' a bonus being it's a good story, compelling, TRUE mystery with talented, familiar performers 'keeping us guessing' . . . With all her dozens of television and movie roles Brenda Scott has entertained audiences of the 1960s, '70s and '80s with, it's outrageously negligent and irresponsible that [apparently] no journalist thought to interview her about working opposite the iconic Gloria Swanson -- AND in a part that necessitated them being together for most of the shoot. A few paragraphs on Dan Duryea wouldn't hurt. They had another, appropriate chance in Oct. 2022 following the death of her ex-husband, actor Andrew Prine. Sigh.

Her eyes darting about give off an ominous look and meaning. Of course for the viewers pulling for her [and/or those who think Brenda Scott is 'the cat's meow'], we do NOT want ANY harm to come to her. But this briefest of brief scenes -- along with that eerie, mood-setting music score -- beautifully sets the stage for what's to follow.

If you're stating that Hollywood has hired performers 'over 18' to play minors, that's occurred for decades, since time immemorial -- mostly due to the limited hours, by law, that children [talent under 18] can be 1) at the film set and 2) in front of the camera.

In the '50s/'60s, a much more civilized time in the US, the numbers of female offenders was quite small as a percent. Therefore, it did not make sense to create separate accommodations for them. Further, the male populations in those years were rather courteous around females. Therefore, it wasn't 'dumb' to mix the populations then. OTOH, it is more than 'dumb', and quite insane, to incarcerate those trans sex offenders in female prisons as the the democrat/liberal fascists insist on doing currently.

[@scvandy3129]

"gingerli5820," That anecdote and comments regarding are 'as old as the hills.' Obviously unusual, but the good news for Brenda and Andy -- and the interested public / nosy fans -- is supposedly they remained friends between and then after split no. 3. When Andrew Prine died I was waiting for the enterprising obituary writer to reach out to Brenda for comments and reminisces, which OF COURSE would include an answer to their unique on-and-off-and-on-and-off intimacy. At least Brenda didn't have an unscrupulous spouse / louse like her 'Who Is Jennifer?' co-lead Gloria Swanson's long time lover Joseph Kennedy, patriarch to the Kennedy clan, who notoriously shook down Gloria for one million dollars [in pre-inflation 1930 dollars] partially to see him through some rough times at RKO.
