...finance a dubious dolphin-human communication experiment. It was a bust. The young dolphins, named Joe and Rosie after the late movie magnate Joseph E. Levine, who produced Day of the Dolphin (1973), and his wife Rosalie, attracted the attention of a parade of celebrities, including Phyllis Diller, Kris Kristofferson and Olivia Newton-John.
