THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY (1955) **1/2 Hitchcock mystery unfolds at the rate of circulation in the corpse. Dark comedy mystery isn't too dark (more like gray), or particularly mysterious, or even very funny. The relationships are articles of faith. There are a couple good lines, Jerry Mathers acts like The Beave a bit, John Forsythe is full of quips and dark hair. The lackadaisical plot complements the picturesque Vermont autumn. It's all very calming, like a long episode of "Murder, She Wrote," a cup of decaf, and cookies.
