Customer Reviews

You should have seen the one that got away.

I am not saying that I am fifty or anything like that, but I can relate to this movie. It makes you want to take up fishing. And William Powell portrays Mr. Peabody as well, if not better than he does Nick Charles. Ann Blyth as Lenore the Mermaid does not have much to say, but you understand her very well. This was filmed on location at Weekiwachee Spring, Florida. I have watched this so many times that I do not have to look it up anymore, even though I do. I also like all the scenes in the Psychiatrist's office. Mr. Peabody is turning fifty. Everyone seems to remind him of this. On a vacation, he captures a mermaid. So he says. However, everyone else decides it is the "fifty thing” except the psychiatrist, who wants to know what test line strength he used when he snagged her. One of my favorite scenes is when the Flying Squad is sent to Peabody’s home. When he does not answer, they will come back later. Be sure to read the book also, “Peabody's Mermaid” by Guy and Constance Pearce Jones.
