The NBC Theater presents... ...the real deal assignment. Production lets Live a Little. Director Richard Wallace. Star Robert Cummings. This is the Screen Director's Guild presentation of United California Productions' Sparkly New Comedy.
Let's Live a Little. Starring Robert Cummings in his original role. And introducing the director of the film, Richard Wallace. The three main elements which go into a motion picture production are the star, the story, and the director.
Tonight's star is Robert Cummings, and the story Let's Live a Little is ready for your enjoyment. But first, here's the screen director, the man who welded star and story into a perfect unity, and the director of such memorable films as Shop-Worn Angel, The Little Minister, and Kiss and Tell.
Mr. Richard Wallace. Thank you. Thank you very much. The comedy you're about to hear is a far cry from the old days of Max Senate when I first learned his business of picture making. Our play tonight, Let's Live a Little, throws a series of gentle jabs at the advertising business, and especially our current concern with the state of our nerves.
In short, it's the kind of a story that says, brother, don't take yourself too seriously. That's why it was fun to make and fun to do again here on the NBC Theater. Now for the first time on the air, here's Let's Live a Little, starring Bob Cummings in his the original role of Duke Crawford.
Quiet and serenity all have nothing whatsoever to do with Duke who happens to be an advertising executive. Michelle Bennett, his most important client, has already changed her mind three times on the theme of his current campaign.
