What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on Vera Kaspar's novel "Laura" (1942).
  • The portrait of Laura that hangs in her apartment was painted in oil over a photograph.
  • Due to the enduring popularity of this film noir, the Library of Congress included "Laura" in the National Film Registry in 1999, and the American Film Institute ranks the film among the greatest detective stories in Hollywood history.
  • In some countries, the film was released under the title "Vertigo".
  • At least five people worked on the script in turn, and due to the limited budget, not the most well-known actors were cast in the main roles.
  • Ruben Mamoulian began filming the movie, but was then replaced in the director's chair by producer Otto Preminger. He brought in a new cinematographer, Joseph LaShelle, who received an 'Oscar' for his work on it.
  • After lengthy discussions, a theme composed by David Raksin was chosen as the musical accompaniment; time proved the wisdom of this decision, and the song became a jazz standard. 'Laura' is the only film from the forties whose music was included in the American Film Institute's list of the greatest film scores.
