Curiosidades

Naked Gun is a 1956 American Western film directed by Eddie Dew and starring Willard Parker, Mara Corday and Barton MacLane.

Production

According to Mara Corday, the movie's name changed several times while being filmed. Originally titled as the Sarazin Curse, it was retitled to The Hanging Judge and then finally to Naked Gun. Decades later, in an interview with Tom Weaver, Corday called the movie "horrible", saying "I knew it was going to be atrocious when the producer said to me 'Do you want to be the ingenue or the heavy?' Right then, I knew I was in trouble."

Primarily a television director, Eddie Dew was hired with the intent of filming the entire movie in five days. Dew was unable to work effectively with the prominent actors starring the film, and his work was subsequently criticized by those involved in the production, with several of the scenes needing to be re-shot after the movie's completion.
