Timeline
In 1974 he accepted the Oscar for "Best Actress in a Leading Role" on behalf of Glenda Jackson for A Touch of Class (1973), who wasn't present at the awards ceremony (it was the only Oscar-winning performance he had directed).
Subsequently, Frank and Panama--cordially--went their separate ways, Frank becoming a solo director and (from 1965) producer, but continuing to write comedy scripts in conjunction with others.
The successful partnership came to an end with the final installment in the Hope-Crosby "road pictures", The Road to Hong Kong (1962).
Frank and Panama brought it to the screen (Li'l Abner (1959)) the following year.
It premiered in November 1956 and ran for 653 performances over 87 weeks, before closing in July 1958.
Of some ten top-grossing collaborations, their most rewarding effort was the highly entertaining medieval adventure spoof, The Court Jester (1955), starring Danny Kaye, lavishly filmed in VistaVision and Technicolor. They also turned out an award-winning Broadway play, "Li'l Abner", based on a comic strip by Al Capp.
From then on Frank and Panama alternated as directors and producers, first at MGM (1950-52), then at Paramount (1954-59).
Blandings Builds His Dream House (1948), adapted from a satirical novel by Eric Hodgins (about a couple whose dream of home ownership turns into a nightmare).
Specializing in light comedy, they came up with the original story line for Hope's My Favorite Blonde (1942).
This opened the door for a joint screenwriting contract with Paramount (1941-46), their prolific work together culminating in an Oscar nomination for the popular Bob Hope-Bing Crosby vehicle, Road to Utopia (1945). Continuing their run of witty comedies, Frank and Panama next wrote and produced the Cary Grant-Myrna Loy box-office hit Mr.
Melvin Frank was half of a famous screenwriting partnership. The other half of the collaborative effort was Norman Panama. The two men became close friends while attending the University of Chicago. Frank had initially pursued a degree in engineering, but was persuaded by Panama to switch to English instead. In 1938 he and Panama moved to Hollywood and embarked on a career writing radio scripts and gags for Bob Hope and Milton Berle.
