Philip Huston on AllMovie

RKO apparently believed the dark-haired Broadway juvenile Philip Huston would become another Robert Taylor when they signed the young stock company actor to a term contract in 1936. Alas, Huston was wasted in Grade-B efforts such as the football drama The Big Game (1936) and The Man Who Found Himself (1937) and found more longevity in the legitimate theater as an actor -- Dion in The Winter's Tale (1946), The Shrike (1952) -- and a playwright.
