DVD Commentary from Viv Sobchack is really feeble


She keeps saying "decollatay" instead of decollatage
She misidentifies a line of Shakespeare (which Price delivers) as being from Hamlet, when it's from Romeo & Juliet.

She seems very gullible in general and and deals primarily in lore, not meaning. I've had all the lore I can stand for this lifetime. It just ain't interesting.

She mentions the ceiling shots too many times (and the shadows from the blinds) and talked too long about that boat. I want to hear dialogue at key scenes and she talked over them, especially the card trick part, where she says "Let's see if we can tell where he....." and then she is talking rather than watching and then saying "Maybe right there?". Not to mention she reveals that another actor originally had Raymond Burr's part but doesn't say who. According to the trivia, it was Lee Van Cleef. That should have been noted because if he had kept that role he may have been a bigger star than he was.
