Short description

Juliet Forrest is convinced that the reported death of her father in a mountain car crash was no accident. Her father was a prominent cheese scientist working on a secret recipe. To prove it was murder, she enlists the services of private eye Rigby Reardon. He finds a slip of paper containing a list of people who are 'The Friends and Enemies of Carlotta'.

What's left behind the scenes

This film is dedicated to the memory of costume designer Edith Head. She worked on many films of the 1940s and 1950s. "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" was the last film she worked on.
