Episode #338: Vincent Price Month: Champagne For Caesar
We are ending our month-long tribute to Vincent Price with a zany comedy. It was a successful movie from 1950, adapted for radio here in 1951, about an intellectual named Beauregard Bottomly (played by Ronald Colman), who goes toe-to-toe with the slimy president of a soap company, Burnbridge Waters (Vincent Price), set on a background of radio/TV quiz programs. The humor, just like the film, is hit-or-miss, but it's a big radio adaptation, with many names (Audrey Totter, Barbara Britton), and Art Linkletter even reprises his role in the film.
