"Goodyear Theatre"

"Capital Gains" - Episode 3.10 (Feb. 1, 1960)

Rod Taylor starred with Joanne Dru in a half-hour drama that's part of the "Alcoa Theatre" anthology series.

Taylor played Alan Ballister, a TV writer who's left penniless, courtesy of taxes and alimony. He's talked into forming a corporation and selling stock -- in himself -- to raise money. He makes himself and his stockholders wealthy while he churns out TV fare.

Writer's block sends him back into dire financial straits. But his ex-wife has played the stock market shrewdly, to the good fortune of them both.
