Director: Norman Z. McLeod Writers: Ken Englund; Everett Freeman From short story: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty by James Thurber Music: David Raksin Producer: Samuel Goldwyn Keywords: Fantasy Walter Mitty, professional proofreader hen-pecked by mother, girlfriend, and boss, escapes the mundanity of his life by serial daydreaming, becoming a surgeon, ship captain, or whatever is necessary to save the damsel in distress. But then he is dragged into a real-life conspiracy when a pretty woman hands him the secret leading to the location of the Dutch Crown Jewels. Adaptation of James Thurber's most popular short story, although with an entirely different mood.
