Guy: "No thanks just the same, but I really don´t." Bruno: "Go on, go on, order." Guy: "Well, well I´ll just have a hamburger and a cup of coffee." "Yes, Sir" lines between Bruno´s comment "I suppose she´s played around a lot, huh" & Guy´s "Skip it, Bruno" Guy: "Let´s not talk about it any more." Bruno: "Women like that can sure make a lot of trouble for a man." lines between Guy´s "I may be old fashioned, but I thought murder was against the law" & Bruno hitting the table. Bruno: "My theory is that everybody is a potential murderer. Now, didn´t you ever feel like you wanted to kill somebody. Say one of those useless fellows that Miriam was playing around with." Guy: "You can´t go around killing people just because you think they are useless." These are more differences between the British version and the American version: British version ends the last scene with Ann on the phone with the line "He says he looks silly in his tennis clothes" American version excludes that line but adds a scene on a train with Guy and Anne Morton being approached by a priest with the question "I beg your pardon, but aren´t you Guy Haines" 38 I CONFESS 1953 Play ‘Our Two Consciences’ by Paul Anthelme Music Composed and Conducted by Dimitri Tiomkin Filmed in Quebec, Canada, and at Warner Brothers Studios Cameo: passer-by on top of a long staircase Trailer THE LATER AMERICAN PERIOD 39 DIAL M FOR MURDER 1954 Play by Frederick Knott Music Composed and Conducted by Dimitri Tiomkin Also filmed in 3-D Filmed at Warner Brothers Studios Cameo: Reunion Dinner Guest (photo) Trailer 40 REAR WINDOW 1954 Short Story by Cornell Woolrich Music score by Franz Waxman Oscar nominations (1954): Director Alfred Hitchcock (His fourth) Cinematographer Robert Burks Filmed at Paramount Studios Cameo: The Composer´s Clock Winder Trailer 41 TO CATCH A THIEF 1955 Novel by David Dodge Music scored by Lyn Murray Oscar (1955): Best Cinematographer Robert Burks Filmed on the French Riviera and at Paramount Studios Cameo: French Riviera Bus Traveller 42 THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY 1956 Novel by Jack Trevor Story Music Score by Bernard Herrmann Song: "Flaggin' the train to Tuscaloosa" Lyric by Mack David, Music by Raymond Scott Filmed in New England and at Paramount Studios Cameo: passer-by at the outdoor art exhibition Trailer 43 THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH 1956 Story by Charles Bennett and D.
