Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hope Gets the Girl
Hope fans will have fun watching watching Bob and beautiful Madeleine Carroll navigate through this delightful romp about secret flight plans hidden in a gold scorpion pin. Hope gets off some good one-liners and there is even an amusing cameo from Bing. A better than usual screenplay by Don Hartman and Frank Butler, based on a story by Melvin Frank and Norman Panama, give Bob and gorgeous Madeleine plenty to do yet still enough time to fall in love.

Madeleine is Karen Bentley, a British ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Happy 100th Birthday, Mr Bob Hope!
Another fine Bob Hope movie, Bob Hope must have been at the age of 38 or 39 at the time. He's funny and quick with the lines. Fine delivery. Bob Hope says in this film as he flattens out his hand, "I got a long life". He sure does and we are glad he has given us 65 years of laughter. Happy 100th Birthday, Mr. Bob Hope!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic Hope and Carroll a definite plus
This is definite vintage Hope with the added benefit of the beautiful and talented Madeleine Carroll along for the ride.

Needless to say Bob was happy ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Memories for the grandchildren
Well, I watched this with a couple of the grandchildren--sub-teens. The plot was out-of date, but they howled at the movie's slapstick. They left the screen for a trip to the bathroom when Madeleine and Bob engaged in some "mushy stuff." That's just the way it was when I saw it in 1942. This Hope film provides a bonus which is the performance of Madeleine Carroll. Her acting skills are revealed in several scenes with Hope when she needs to save them by belting out several lines of American slang. Take it ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Hope Spy Farce
My Favorite Blonde is a hilarious edition to the My Favoirte Series. Madeline Caroll makes an excellent Hope cohort as does a certain penguin. I used the think that Bob Hope movies were all horribly dated but this movie proves that Hope's brand of comedy still works. I only wish they would finally re-release My Favorite Spy so that I could own the full series.
