The film involves an American artist in Paris (Van Dyke) who fakes his own death in order to increase the worth of his paintings (new paintings keep "posthumously" hitting the market). His conniving pal (Garner) sells the paintings and withholds the proceeds while the artist toils in a shabby garret. Written by Richard Alan Simmons, William Sackheim, and Carl Reiner, and directed by Norman Jewison, the movie also features Carl Reiner and Ethel Merman. Jewison noted in his autobiography that the film's flaw was that the script assumes that an artist's death guarantees a huge increase in the sales value of his paintings, which doesn't make sense in reality, and that this hurt audiences' responses to the movie enormously. All of the paintings that were used in the movie was the artwork of international artist, Don Cincone. LESS
