Around Hollywood
Hollywood (U.R) A reign
ing movie star had his belated
triumps Tuesday his "stunt
double was
such a flop
that the live,
actor had to
be called back
for retakes.
The star is
Jackie, the
only trained
lion thespian
in Hollywood.
He has tie
title role in
Bernard Shaw
epic, "Androcles and the Lion."
Since Jackie is temperamental
and might be moved to sample
Aline Mosby
RKO's George
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Correspondent
a two-footed actor's arm for
taste, a man in a lion's suit took
over for some shots in which
Androcles, played by Alan
Young, waltzes with the animal.
But trainer Mel Koontz proud
ly reported that the dummy lion
"just didn't look right."
"He moved his head jerkily,"
he said. "So the real Jackie
came back to do the scenes."
Double in Danger Spots
Koontz, in a wig and roman
tcga, will double for Young in
the most dangerous shots, just
as the trainer has doijbled for
Jackie's other co-stars.
Jackie has a monopoly on Hon
roles in the movies, since no
other lion has been schooled to
act with the two-footed stars.
Jackie wrestled with Victor Ma
ture in "Samson and Delilah."
He has starred in Tafzan movies
and has the title role in a War
ner epic, "The Lion and the
Horse."
Rank Amateur
MGM tried to use the real-life
GI's lion pet, Fagan, in the pic
ture, "Fearless Fagan." But
Fagan was a rank amateur at
turning his profile to the cam
era, so Jackie had to be rushed
in to take over that title role,
too.
"In the fights between the
lion and the horse in the War
ner movie, it was a man in a
lion's suit on the horse's back, of
course," Koontz added.
Successor Nasty
Jackie is nastier than his pre-
DeSoto
Plymouth
Three on a match: great
cars, fine r.ervice, and a
square deaf.
