The Trouble With Harry (1955)
From Amazon:
A busman's holiday for Alfred Hitchcock, this 1955 black comedy concerns a pesky corpse that becomes a problem for a quiet, Vermont neighborhood.

A strange film for the Hitch to make, this is a sort of comedy of errors about a dead body and the people who think they may have killed it.
The cast is likable enough, in a small town good-hearted folky kind of way, and Shirley Maclaine makes a great debut as a single mother with serious husband issues. However comedy...
