So contrived, with little of the character's actions making any sense. Two people die immediately from projectiles thrown at them. And while that may hurt like hell, it wouldn't kill you instantly. Two different gorgeous women want Gregory Peck for gawd knows what reason and are constantly fighting each other to be with him. You can totally invision a guy on a typewriter trying to think of things to put in the movie, and after being told something would be totally unbelievable, he argues with them and puts it in the movie anyway.
