Strangewill. Starring the distinguished Hollywood actor Warren William. And featuring Mary Lansing and Carlton Young with an all-star Hollywood cast. Original music by Del Castillo. Deadmin's wills are often strange. We cannot attempt to understand them, but try to find the answers.
We can but tell the story. This is Warren William bringing you the story, Autograph Girl. But first, here is Warren William as John Francis O'Connell. When a man makes out his last well-end testament, and meets a very pretty young girl, all in the same day,
watch out! Anything's liable to happen. I remember very well the morning that Peter Brayton, Motion Picture Star, and Hartbob of literally millions of girls the world over, Came into my office to sign his will.
Romance must have been the farthest thing from his mind. Because... Ehh... well I'm glad that's over with John. You know, the very thought of signing my last will and testament gives me the shivers. On nonsense Peter, today people think about such things when they yell good in the prime of life.
Well maybe so. Now at least if anything happens I won't have a mob of greedy relatives hovering around my casket. And of course, they'd be wasting their time. Hey, John, I've got an idea. There's a premiere of my new picture opening tonight over at the Capitol.
Yes, I've been reading about it. Mobs of people outside. Giant spotlights, playing the sky. On the spot broadcasts. Big stuff. No, that's all part of the business. But John, come with me, will you? Hi.
What about all those glamorous girls that want to go? Why not one of them? Not tonight. Not tonight, John. A guy's got to be himself once in a while. And I won't take no for an answer.
