Andy Paris: Bubblegum King (2010)
For the first time ever, the forgotten true story of how a lone businessman cornered the latex market and ruled the Bubble Gum world!
65 min
This is the documentary of Andrew J. Paris, the first businessman to mass produce bubblegum after World War II. He became an overnight, international success and was dubbed "The Bubble Gum King of America" by Life Magazine in 1947...but his reign was short. Andy's fame took him to Hollywood, where he befriended rising stars like Natalie Wood and Marilyn Monroe. He made appearances on the most popular radio shows of the day, and his face appeared in newspapers all over the world. But Andy's business quickly fell under the scrutiny of the American government, with far reaching consequences for his fame and fortune.
