Best Visual Pun Ever! (Major Spoiler Alert)
When Raymond Fitch (Zero Mostel) tries to board a ship, he is stymied by a rat interdiction device.
I hardly think Zero Mostel was able to climb a rope, he complained to Elia Zazan about all the running he had to do in previous scenes. The great Jack Palance was really on that rope to the ship after a stuntman failed. That was grit and ambition from someone in his first big screen role.
