One of Hollywood's busiest supporting players from 1937-1942, balding, corpulent George Watts often played judges, as in Sky Murder (1940), Mr. District Attorney (1941), The Talk of the Town (1942), and Apache Trail (1942). Almost a dead ringer for Benjamin Franklin, Watts did indeed play the great American inventor/statesman in The Remarkable Andrew (1942), one of his final films. The veteran stock company actor died of a heart attack.
