Question
In which movie is there a scene in a waxworks/carnival in which the characters see themselves in funhouse mirrors, distorted. Is it French? Or Hitchcock?
Hello Greg,
There have been many films over the years that have featured a 'hall of mirrors', but it's possible that you are thinking of the 1947 film, "The Lady From Shanghai", with its famous shoot-out finale scene in just such a place. It starred Orson Welles (who also wrote and directed) and Rita Hayworth.
