Here are a few surprising bits of trivia about 1960s and 1970s Hollywood that Ron and Clint Howard reveal in their new book.
In ‘The Boys,’ Oscar-winning director Ron Howard and longtime character actor Clint Howard write the book of their family in distinctly different voices.. Ron was disappointed to discover that in scenes in “The Andy Griffith Show” in which his character was supposed to enjoy ice cream, his cone actually was filled with “cold, lumpy mashed potatoes” that wouldn’t melt under the lights. “Try licking that and smiling ear-to-ear as a six-year-old,” he recalls in the book.
In the pre-cellphone era, the Howards had a family rule that either Rance or his wife Jean had to be present in their Burbank home between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. every weekday in case someone called with a job offer for Rance or their sons. “My thrifty parents didn’t want to waste money on an answering service,” Clint recalls.
Shirley Jones and Robert Preston bend down to talk to Ron Howard in a still from the 1962 motion picture “The Music Man.”Ron and Clint’s parents put their sons’ paychecks into savings accounts and U.S. bonds, except for the 15% that was required by law to go into a trust account and 5% that the parents took as a management fee. That necessitated a frugal lifestyle. Dinner at home often was meatloaf, fish sticks or hot dogs.
Clint Howard as Balok on the “Star Trek” set. His dad snapped this shot on the bridge of the Enterprise.When Clint was cast as the child-sized alien leader Balok in a 1966 episode titled “The Corbomite Manuever,” producers asked his father if the 7-year-old would mind having his head shaved for the role. A bit boldly, Clint declined, imagining that he would be teased by other kids and miss other chances to act while his hair grew back.
