* PlayingAgainstType: Ben [=McKenna=] is much closer to the usual all-American Creator/JimmyStewart character than [[Theatre/{{Rope}} Rupert Cadell]], [[Film/RearWindow Jeff Jeffries]] or [[Film/{{Vertigo}} Scottie Ferguson]], but his sometimes-tense exchanges with Jo show that he's not perfect. The scene where he insists on giving Jo some tranquilizers so he can tell her about Hank's kidnapping especially hints at a darker side of the character.
