In this 1961 feature film JK plays ambitious district attorney "Dan Callahan", who throws an innocent murder suspect under the bus during a ruthless bid to become a gubernatorial candidate.
Callahan listens intently to Senator Alex Simon (Don Ameche), who also intends to seek the governor's office. (That's actor Parley Baer behind JK.)
Accompanied by the press, Callahan himself arrests the murder suspect, Thornwall (Rhodes Reason):
The same scene seen in color (detail from an Italian fotobusta):
Callahan grills the real killer (Robert Colbert) on the stand as Judge Leland Hoffman (Efrem Zimbalist, Jr.) looks on.
BONUS: A lurid 1961 newspaper ad for Fever which mentions Bart Maverick and Stu Bailey (Zimbalist's character in 77 Sunset Strip):
But, JK will always be a star to us. To read (and see) much more about him in A Fever in the Blood, please click here and here.
