There was a tv movie remake of Laura (actually there were several) in 1968, with Jackie Kennedy's sister, Lee Radziwill, playing Laura.

Interesting to hear Vincent Price as a spoiled rich boy before he got typecast in horror roles.

You haven't heard any of his radio apperances as "THE SAINT"?

A great movie the classics are great😀💞

In the original film Lydecker's first name was Waldo, not Paul, as in this version. I wonder why it was changed.

[@fromthesidelines]

It was the same script- when it was restaged with Gene, Victor Mature and Joesph Kearns on February 1, 1954.

I think Paul was the original name in the book.

[@fromthesidelines]

Waldo is his name in the book- and in the movie.

[@robertammannes1643]

Thanks! I Read it 40 years ago and my memory is hazy.

[@fromthesidelines]

You're welcome!

Interesting that the announcer called himself John M. Kennedy. Who was the other one at this time?
