Stella is an out-of-left-field black comedy in which star Anne Sheridan is upstaged by an
uproarious supporting cast. At a family picnic, a none too likeable uncle dies from
accidentally eating poisoned mushrooms. The other family members don't want to be
accused of murder, so they leave it to the stupidest branch of the clan, personified by David
Wayne and Frank Fontaine, to dispose of the body. When it is learned that Uncle had a hefty
insurance policy, the family tries to palm off various corpses as the genuine article. The
final image is of Wayne and Fontaine digging hundreds of holes in the field where uncle is
resting; it seems they can't remember where they buried him! Stella is based on a
somewhat more serious novel by mystery specialist Doris Miles Disney.
