There's a little interlude in this movie

In 1943, when Hitchcock was filming the film [Lifeboat], due to the limited space in the boat, he could not accommodate his habitual cameo. For this reason, he racked his brains, and even once planned to play a floating corpse on the water. The result was a health consultant. Struggling to stop. Then he had another plan, at the time of the success of the most successful weight loss plan of his life (from 280 pounds to 182 pounds), so he took before and after photos of the weight loss to make a fictional "Ricada" "Advertisement for drug weight loss, printed prominently in the newspaper, and this newspaper was carefully spread in the lifeboat. Interestingly, after the film was released, Hitchcock received a large number of letters, and the content was mostly inquiring about which medicines could be bought.
