The boys have 28 partners, including Scripter Robert Wehling, now with Disney, and Fred Chiodo, who wrote the theme song "Kelly." Chiodo was a parking-lot attendant at the Palladium at the time. Other stockholders: a carpenter, a voice teacher, secretaries, a TV director, a light-company manager, a factory worker. Davis directed "Kelly" mostly around Bunker Hill, and Wilson stars as Kelly. The cast is thoroughly competent: Marilyn O'Connor (Mrs. Davis) as a two-timing blonde, Jeanne Baird as Kelly's girl, various alumni of the Hollywood School of the Drama in other parts.

Her family is well-to-do and Diane has an independent income. Her qualifications as an actress: seven months' study with Estelle Harman, drama coach. This, then, i3 the girl of whom Birdwell proclaimed in trade-paper ads: "Hollywood needs a new woman! With few exceptions (five at most) the women of Hollywood are obsolescent.

Hollywood needs the female counterpart of a Brando and others of his jungle breed to nurse a hungry industry with the milk of her talents, her blood, her muscles.
