Killer Dill (1947), produced by Sam Coslow, is a lighthearted and offbeat crime comedy that blends gangster parody with classic screwball antics. The film stars Stuart Erwin as Johnny Dill, a meek and mild-mannered lingerie salesman in 1930s Chicago who dreams of being more confident and respected. When a real gangster is murdered and Dill is mistakenly identified as the killer, he becomes an overnight sensation — feared by the underworld and admired by the public. As he tries to clear his name, chaos, romance, and hilarity ensue. Packed with mistaken identities, fast-paced dialogue, and slapstick charm, Killer Dill is a cult favorite for fans of quirky crime comedies and post-war satire. Its unique blend of mob tropes and comedic innocence makes it a standout entry in 1940s genre cinema.
