a.		Final theatrically released Hollywood movie for director Richard T. Heffron.

Wallis, including "Blue Hawaii."

However, the so-called "Reduco Obesity Slayer" diet pill or potion ad seemed so real that audience called the studio and wrote letters to Alfred Hitchcock asking where could they get this product.
