MAX BAER JR.
The career of Max Baer Jr. experienced some ups and downs, yet his determination successfully made him one of the most successful artists. Some of the movies and TV shows that Baer was featured in were Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Surfside 6, Hawaiian Eye, The Roaring 20sI, and the 77 Sunset Strip. One of his unforgettable projects was when he played a role in the TV series The Beverly Hillbillies. However, after nine years, the show was put to an end.
Thanks to Baer’s artistic mindset, he developed the idea of using a popular song title into a movie title. After he acquired the rights of the song title, he started the 1976 film, Ode to Billy, which he also directed. The film became a hit and grossed $26 million at the box office. Now, there are hundreds of song-titled movies. The right credit must have been given to Baer for the brilliant idea that he made.
