Hollywood (U.P.)—Hollywood finally stumbled on a "secret weapon" to lick television, actor Chill Wills said today, and it all boils down to a barnyard collection of brays, whinnies, barks and meows.
Movies Find A 'Secret Weapon' In Fight Against Television
"Animals — that's our Sunday punch," he explained. "We're throwin' 'em at television lickety-split. Now we've even got animal academy awards."
Wills got in one those himself the other night. "Francis," the mule who talks with Wills's voice, walked off with the first "Patsy" award and Wills was there to tote it home.
All this goes to prove, he says, is that Hollywood's finally caught on to something actors have known for years.
"Animals are sure-fire box-office." Wills drawled. "It took the big shots long enough to realize this. But us actors learned it the hard way: They've been steal'en scenes from us ever since Rin-Tin-Tin.
"And it an animal can take everybody's eyes off a human, why not use 'em to lure people away from TV? It's a cinch two-legged stars can't use it."
Look what Asta did for the "Thin Man" series, he pointed out, and Daisy for the "Blondie" movies.
Would a "Tarzan" picture be any good without Cheetah the chimp?" Wills wants to know. "Or Rogers and Cassidy and Autry without their horses?"
Trouble with Hollywood, he figures, is they forgot about this gold mine they had until television began to hit 'em where it hurts. Then Universal-International took a big chance with "Francis" and gave a mule the biggest part an animal ever had.
"I-U saw the light and signed up Bonzo, the chimpanzee," he said. "Bonzo died in a fire last week, but don't you think they're not lookin' for a Bonzo II."
