Показать описание
Scent of Mystery is a 1960 American mystery film, the first to use the Smell-O-Vision system to release odors at points in the film's plot. It was the first film in which aromas were integral to the story, providing important details to the audience. It was produced by Mike Todd, Jr., who, in conjunction with his father Mike Todd, had produced such spectacles as This Is Cinerama and Around the World in Eighty Days.

The film was later re-released in Cinerama under the title Holiday in Spain without Smell-O-Vision. In 2012, the film was restored, reconstructed and re-released by David Strohmaier. In 2015, a version complete with reconstructed scents was presented at screenings in Los Angeles, Denmark and England.

Jack Cardiff called it the "one film I want to erase from my memory. The reason for this is that, through no fault of my own, the film was a complete disaster."

Plot
A mystery novelist, played by Denholm Elliott, discovers a plan to murder an American heiress, played by Elizabeth Taylor in an uncredited role, while on vacation in Spain. He enlists the help of a taxi driver, played by Peter Lorre, to travel across the Spanish countryside in order to thwart the crime.

What a movie. I enjoyed it thoroughly and have never heard of it under either title but remember the first smell a vision movies when they first came out. I love the comical role Mr Lorre played in this film. Thank you so much for sharing this little jewel.

A very pleasant surprise, as I've never even heard of this movie under either name. Clever lines by clever writers delivered by consummate actors, in gorgeous color with plenty of local color! I just wish that the seemingly educated people who write for the movies would've known the difference between "imply" and "infer". I don't want to be considered as the grammar police, but seeing this in lots of productions, past and present, it, I guess, just surprises me. Thanks for uploading this very entertaining movie! 🎦

I was interested to see this. But what is it with these "remastered" vids with dialogue so dim it's barely audible at all with the volume up all the way? (But the music soundtrack is plenty loud!.) Sorry I can't watch this!

Elizabeth Taylor is/was one of the most physically beautiful woman in present history (maybe all history since there remains no likeness of Helen of Troy). She was absolutely stunning for much of 50 yrs.

Volume is so low I had to turn the sound bar up full and what's with the strange video profile being curved like a wrap around screen?
Sound 3/10
Video 2/10
Over all 4 out of 10

Denholm Elliott looks like a clash of Liam neeson, Christian Slater and Kevin Spacey, the last two is no longer seen....😅
