He later shuttled between Columbia, 20th Century-Fox (where he provided the original story for Preston Sturges' Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend) and RKO. At the latter studio, he worked on one of the best-ever "B" pictures of the 1950s, The Narrow Margin. Earl Felton's later credits included Walt Disney's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954) and his unbilled contributions to Stanley Kramer's Pride and the Passion (1957). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
