CALENDARS By William J. Felchner In 1957, science fiction movie fans were treated to one of the all-time classics in the genre. The film’s self-explanatory title said it all, “The Incredible Shrinking Man.” It was the fantastic tale of one Robert Scott Carey, the hapless title character who finds himself shrinking into oblivion following a freak encounter at sea with a strange mist. “The Incredible Shrinking Man” is more than a science fiction classic. The film also represents one of the most collectible sci-fi entries of the Fabulous Fifties. Based on the novel “The Shrinking Man” (1956) by Richard Matheson, “The Incredible Shrinking Man” was produced by Albert Zugsmith for Universal-International Pictures. Writing the screenplay (his first) was Matheson himself, with uncredited assistance from Richard Alan Simmons. Ably directing the action was Jack Arnold (“It Came From Outer Space,” “The Creature From the Black Lagoon”) with Ellis W. Carter as cinematographer and Al Joseph as film editor. Heading the cast were Grant Williams as Robert Scott Carey and Randy Stuart as Louise Carey. Also on board were April Kent as Clarice Bruce, Paul Langton as Charlie Carey, Raymond Bailey as Dr. Silver, William Schallert as Dr. Bramson, Diana Darrin as Nurse, Billy Curtis as Midget and Orangey as Butch the Cat. Orangey, a male marmalade tabby owned and trained by legendary cinematic animal trainer Frank Inn, had previously appeared in the films “Rhubarb” (1951) and “This Island Earth” (1955).

NEW HOURS

Budgeted at $750,000, “The Incredible Shrinking Man” began production on May 31, 1956. As might be expected, the movie’s special effects accounted for the lion’s share of the budget, which included large props (matchbook, table, mousetrap, sewing needle, thimble, et al.) and the construction of an oversized dollhouse at Universal Pictures’ Stage 28. In order to protect the secrecy of the special photography used in the film, Universal adopted a closeddoor policy on the set, further creating an aura of mystery for potential filmgoers.

Filming “The Incredible Shrinking Man” proved to be a grueling challenge for lead actor Grant Williams, who was injured multiple times while climbing sets and the like. His injuries included scratches, blisters and an eye condition, which merited medical attention at the studio hospital.

“The Incredible Shrinking Man” opens at sea, where Scott Carey and his wife, Louise, are vacationing on their boat. While Louise is down in the cabin, a strange mist moves in, enveloping Scott topside. After returning home, Scott notices that his clothes are now too large. Alarmed by this development, Scott visits his doctor, whose Xrays later reveal that Scott, who suspected as much, is actually shrinking. A referral to a medical institute determines that a combination of the strange radioactive mist and exposure to lawn pesticides has altered his molecular structure, resulting in his shrinking.

Scott Carey soon becomes the subject of intense media attention, forcing him to stay inside his home. An antidote is discovered, arresting Scott’s height at three feet, but it proves to be only temporary, as he continues to shrink following a relationship with a circus dwarf named Clarice. Now living in a dollhouse, Scott is attacked

“The Incredible Shrinking Man”: Larger-Than-Life Movie Memorabilia This one sheet poster sold for $776.75. one day by the family cat while Louise is out running an errand. Taking refuge in the basement, Scott encounters many other dangers, including a burst water heater and later a marauding spider, the latter of which Scott manages to kill with a large sewing needle. Assuming that Butch killed Scott after finding a bloody piece of clothing, Louise and Scott’s brother, Charlie, investigate the broken water heater in the basement, unable to hear Scott’s pleas for help as he has now become so tiny as to be inaudible. Scott later escapes his basement dungeon, slipping through a tiny square in a window screen and contemplating his fate as he continues to shrink to sub-atomic stature while staring at the massive, starlit universe above. “The Incredible Shrinking Man” premiered in New York City on Feb. 22, 1957. More than one month later, the movie made its Los Angeles debut on March 27, 1957. In late April of that year, the film went into general release in the United States. “The Incredible Shrinking Man” proved to be one of the most successful science fiction pictures of the 1950s, grossing $1.43 million by the end of 1957.
