Boris Morros had produced Laurel & Hardy's "The Flying Deuces" and the musical "Second Chorus;" he also did some espionage on the side (dramatized in the film "Man on a String," with Ernest Borgnine as Moros).<br />As for "Charley's Aunt," I know that Arthur Askey also filmed his own version, titled "Charley's Big-Hearted Aunt" - he was known as "Big-Hearted Arthur" on his popular BBC radio show. Maybe the retitling of the Benny version was to avoid confusion with Askey's film (unless the Askey film was made later).rnigmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01370724366178429029noreply@blogger.com
