Hope full DVD
ST. CLAIR's "signature" series each consist of three public domain movies (on a single DVD) that are good, but not always the featured artist's best work. In this case, only two theatrical films are offered. The third item is an episode of the Jack Benny Program that includes a brief skit of Benny, Bing Crosby and George Burns trotting out an old vaudeville softshoe routine. Hope appears near the end of this sketch.
The Hope, Crosby and Dorothy Lamour "road picture" franchise was still going strong a dozen years after it had begun when their sixth entry, ROAD TO BALI (filmed in Technicolor), was released. Here, our two song-and-dance men (Bob and Bing) hastily depart Melbourne, Australia to avoid some marriage-minded ladies. They take jobs as sea divers and on the way to Bali meet up with lovely Princess Lala (Lamour).
In MY FAVORITE BRUNETTE, Bob is a baby photographer mistaken for the private eye who occupies the office next door. Soon entangled with bad guys...
