Curiosidades

Played the same role---garbage man--in Bola de fuego (1941) and the remake Nace una canción (1948).

In Rainbow Bridge (1974), Hawkeye is upset with Frank's choices of sending the wounded off a bus into the OR. When Hawkeye overrides his orders, Frank screams, "This is mutiny! I'm the commander on this bus!" To which Hawkeye says to Father Mulcahy, "'Mutiny on the Bus' - It was a B picture. Allen Jenkins played the bus driver.".

A former stage actor, Jenkins became a Warner contract player in the early 1930s. Mostly he played supporting parts, the hero's sidekick; e.g., for James Cagney.

He was labeled the "greatest scene-stealer of the 1930s" by The New York Times.

Alumnus of the AADA (American Academy of Dramatic Arts), Class of 1922.
