The painting above the mantel in Jessica's home is 'Femme à la Rose,' [the original] created in 1930 by the French painter and print maker Marié Laurencin. Influenced by the cubism movement, the artist specialized in themes of femininity using soft pastels and muted colors. She was active from 1910 until her death in 1956.
The $1,000 that Jessica gave away as a bribe in this 1956 film would be the equivalent of more than $11,000 in 2024.
According to the trailer on L'Étrange Créature du lac noir (1954) Blu-ray disc, this played on a double bill with La créature est parmi nous (1956).
Debut of actress Anna Karen.
