What's left behind the scenes

  • The screenplay was initially written under the title "One Plus One Equals One." The film entered production under the title "Deception."
  • Filming took place in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
  • "Family Plot" was the last, 53rd, film by the great Hitchcock.
  • Hitchcock planned for Burt Reynolds or Roy Scheider to play Adamson. He also intended to invite Al Pacino or Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway, and Beverly Sills or Liza Minnelli for the roles of George, Fran, and Blanche, but considered these actors too “expensive” for his project.
  • “Family Plot” is one of ten films based on the works of Victor Canning. In the US, the book was released as “Family Plot,” while its original title, under which it was first published in England, was “The Rainbird Pattern.”
  • As a promotional stunt to promote the film, Hitchcock held a press conference in a specially made cemetery set. The names of the invited journalists were “engraved” on the tombstone mockups.
  • Alfred Hitchcock’s cameo – Hitchcock’s silhouette is visible through a glass door with the inscription “Births and Deaths Registry.”
  • The final shot of the film, in which Blanche winks at the camera, is an improvisation by Barbara Harris that Hitchcock left in the film.
