Charles Butterworth was, before he came to Hollywood in 1930 a stage attraction on Broadway. In the 30s he had his big successes as the hero`s nonsense best friend, and due to the fact, that he made always good dry quips and bonmonts during shooting, the writers honored this with writing only fragments of his scripts, hoping that he would fill the missing lines. He didn`t like that very much, and his star began sinking in the late 30s. In the 40s he worked for smaller studios, except for Warner`s A-production, "This Is The Army". Two years after his last movie, "Dixie Jamboree" for PRC, he died in a car crash.
