This movie is probably the lowlight of Wishman's career. It does boast some laughs, however. Sammy Petrillo's jokes are weak, but his performance saves him overall. "Keyholes" was his last movie. Martin Jackowe gives a fine performance in an uncredited role. I would recommend this movie if you are in the mood for some fun, but not expecting much.
This film has gone largely unnoticed by the public, but in fact is a fine piece of cinema. Wishman, though not at her best here, still presents a visually pleasing and legitmate effort. Sammy Petrillo, in his cinematic swan song, is comedically brilliant (despite the film's mediocre script). Sadly, several actors' roles in this film went uncredited (but should not go unnoticed). Chief among these is the performance of Martin Jackowe, who apparently retired from acting after this film. Jackowe's screen presence is unmistakable, his skill is obvious, and his comedic talent is only hinted at. He, like Petrillo, has seemingly vanished from show business. It is criminal that he is not recognized for his work in this film.
