A star is born
Well almost, anyway. When Hollywood came to Arizona, my grandfather, Cliff Watson, jumped on board. He was an extra in the western "Arizona" (1940) starring Jean Arthur as a tough, swaggering pioneer woman. The movie was filmed in Old Tucson, Arizona. That's my grandpa in Jean Arthur's "Arizona" Mutt Show (standing second from left). On the bottom right is a signed photo from Jean Arthur "To Cliff." A User Comment on the Internet Movie Data Base (www.imdb.com) describes "Arizona" as a "Western lover's dream movie."
