It seems likely that they only released the picture at all because it was already in the can by the time the full implications of Hammett's situation dawned on them. In any event, all of this was immensely frustrating to a eglin air force base fairly apolitical Jack Smart who eglin air force base was hoping both for a longer run of the radio eglin air force base show and a series of "Fat Man" movies to equal the success of William Powell and Myrna Loy in the "Thin Man" films. But this was not to be, and we only have the one film upon which to judge what a full series of them might have been like. Table of Contents. SOURCES J.

| by the end of the series J. Scott Smart had become a household name. One can still find many people old enough to have listened to search the program that can readily associate Jack's stage name with "The Fat Man." What actually killed the program were politics pure and simple. In 1950 Dashiell Hammett, who was peripherally involved in leftist politics, ran afoul of the House Un- search American Activities Committee when he refused to give names of other activists. He was tried and imprisoned for search his failure to cooperate with the Committee and was blacklisted along with the many other fine artists and entertainers who fell victim to the anti- communist hysteria of the day. And, as William Nolan (1983:222) mentions, all of his radio shows were cancelled because they had become tainted. Norwich, being ever-mindful of its public image, was quick to withdraw its sponsorship of "The Fat Man," and the program became once again a sustainer for its last season with companies like Clorets partially paying the bills. |
