Going Back To His Roots
For Universal Pictures’ 1971 film How to Frame a Figg, Don Knotts went back to playing a goofball comedic role, flashing his trademark surprised and wide-eyed face throughout the movie. It is about Hollis Alexander Figg, a bookkeeper’s assistant in the city hall of Dalton who is framed for embezzlement. This films is certainly a comeback for Knotts since his character in it is much suited to him than his role in The Love God? Everyone was glad he went back to doing something that he loves.
