Director: Elliott Nugent
Baby photographer Ronnie Jackson, on death row in San Quentin, tells reporters how he got there: taking care of his private-eye neighbor's office.
75 years' old and still marvelous. Love it. December, 2022.
I met him twice. Once on a flight from Palm Springs (where he lived), and once In Honolulu, when I was out early in the morning. I was walking between hotels, came around a corner, and there he was talking with Loni Anderson. I got to chat with both of them, and he remembered me being his first class flight attendant a few months before. He was so nice. I can’t remember what year it was, but I started flying in 1983, and it wasn’t too long after that.
Dollar for dollar, pound for pound, I think this is the most consistently funny and clever of movies Hope ever made! A perfect cast, and perfect Hope movie persona performance. One of the great movie comedies of all time...
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you. 🍕🍕🍕
He never made a good movie.
@@foobarmaximus3506 Now now Maxey, don't let your personal prejudice dim your critical eye. Something we all may be prone to toward certain stars. He was in many good films from his start to about 1950 or so. The fact that almost all of his films subsequently (and particularly in the 1960's) were appallingly dreadful does not change that fact. YOU may not like his comic persona, but this particular film is a gem to any more balanced spirits toward him...
@@foobarmaximus3506 why are you here?doh!!🙄
@@foobarmaximus3506 How would you know? Obviously you're retarded.
The wit of the old days from those who came out of vaudeville dwarfs the comedic intellect today. Men like Henny, George, Milton, Jack, and their apprentice, Bob always kept it simple while always keeping a smile on your face. Little slapstick. Just good wit.
Gary McAleer A wit that wouldn't quit for sure.
And every one of them could also dance and sing. Impressive to say the least.
These oldies are still fun to watch.
Funny, funny, funny, funny. Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour great combination. Loving it. I was a wee kid when my parents used to watch these in the 1970s. Now in 2018, my girl of 11 loves them. Long may this comedian continue to make future generations laugh.
Love Bob Hope but even more when he's cast with Bing Crosby in their Road To .... films. Thank you for my Saturday afternoon treat 👍
I always watched Bob hope and Dorothy Lamour films when I was young and I still watch them.
We love this movie! Really makes you feel that they are still here, capable of being just as hilarious this many years later!
"In the last 24 hours, I have been knocked out, shot at, beaten up, knocked down again and put through the wringer. And if I'm still alive it's only because the insurance company doesn't want to give up." What a marvelous piece of dialogue writing! Thank you, America. Love you America. Lots of love and respects from India.
Great movie and I loved the cameo with Bing Crosby at the end. Hope and Crosby a great team they were.
Crosby's fit at the end gave me the biggest laugh I've had for a while! Best cameo ever.
This house can still be seen from the road on the 19 mile drive in Carmel, California. Worth the drive to see.
17 mile drive, mate
Classic! Bob Hope being Bob Hope. Dorothy Lamour without a sarong. Two of the all-time, great character baddies, Peter Lorre and Lon Chaney. And der Bing.
The best! Wally Westmore & Edith Head.
Amazingly, Paramount didn't renew the copyright when it was due in 1975, so it's in the Public Domain!
Their loss is our gain, right?
I wonder if it was not renewed at that time because it was before DVDs, before internet, before Laserdiscs, before VHS. What was the point? But I'm glad they did not.
My Favorite Verison of MY FAVORITE BRUNETTE is When It was Distributed by COLUMBIA PICTURES TELEVISION in 1980's It Cuts Out both Paramount Release Logo.
She was so Beautiful. Love the old black n white movies!!!
Alan Ladd wore a hat like he was born with it. A cool demeaned and a magnificent voice. Didn't matter if he stood on a peach crate with boots looking jack palance right in the eye.
Just brilliant! Wonderful noir parody and the timing is just immaculate. Very entertaining to watch. Love it!
Alan Ladd had such a cool speaking voice.
yeah, for such a short guy
Bob Hopes timing was perfection.
One of my favorites. Great post of a true classic. 🎶 Thanks for the memories. 🎶
My goodness, Dorothy was so good looking back in the day.
She was a sight to behold, and better looking than old Norma Jean, the floozy
Zach Kubish Were you born an asshole, or have you perfected it over the years ? What does Marilyn have to do with Dorothy Lamour? Crawl back in your hole
@@barrytooley6724 Exactly !
I've seen this movie several times over the years....never gets old!😄
Good old movies never get old, modern crap gets old real fast !
Better than legitimate it was profitable!!! Loved the way hope delivered his lines😂
Miss Bob.. Need Hero Like Him 💕
Bob Hope's (et al) movies prior to the 1950's are the BEST1
Classic Bob Hope...luv his physical comedy and comedic timing. Draws you into the story ,no matter how zany .Reminds me of Lucille Ball the way they appear to be able to do that so effortlessly.
Lee Shepard It's the difference between being funny and naturally comical I think. Like Gracie Allen, Carol Burnett, Harvey Korman.
Discovered this gem, back in the '90's when I had taped, it. Still, my favorite Hope, picture!!!
Loved the cameos by Alan Ladd and Bing Crosby
Thank you for upload. Clarity is wonderful. Just perfect for Sunday afternoon. ❤️

Wonderful 😀
Delightful. Thank you!
Bob Hope..still cracks me up..and wow what a golfer..
Great cameos by AlanLadd in the beginning & BingCrosbyat the end.
\
this is my favorite movie with Bob Hope & Dorothy Lamour plus love the ending part with the Bing!
Hello, Harlows,
How are you doing today?
Bing Crosby cameo at end was cool!
That was so much fun and what a cast! Thank you!
A very Good movie. Thanks for posting it !
This was a joy to watch including the Cameo by Bing Crosby at the end. All three of the stars were in the 'Road to...' movies.
Dobie Gillis How's Maynard, or is self isolating on some island?
@@bobbywimsy6741 Don't know what happened to him after he was shipwrecked on some island. I'm stuck here at home with Zelda. Someone please help!
Dobie Gillis Was referring to Doby Gillis' sidekick Bob Denver who later played on Gilligan's Island. A stretch I realize. By the way if you were stuck with Zelda Fitzgerald back in 1920's Long Island ya might be cozier. We're all stuck in right now. Here in Maine believe it or not, we are getting 1 foot of snow, on April 9th no less.
Dobie Gillis These movies are YT gems. Humor helps loads. Bob's one liners are greatly appreciated. Google You Bet Your Life(Groucho,)and make it a steady diet. Or ANY comedy you like.
@@bobbywimsy6741 Here's to us boomers. Cheers!
Gems of a bygone era .... When the major studios were king and a handful of the most charismatic Hollywood stars entertained us all in more innocent less cynical times. ..Sharp dialogue and Bob Hope are a magic mix
You wanted to remind us of "more innocent less cynical times." and you chose BOB HOPE! wow.
@@doctorcraptonicus7941 you miss interpret my words ...those fun comedy features were star vehicles for laughs ...Hollywood did produce more light hearted films after all theatre and variety had proved that jokes and escapism for all ages worked .....Bob Hopes scriptwriters provided the quickfire smart dialogue but I wouldnt call the hope and Crosby films cynical..They were crowd pleasers and intentionally not to be taken seriously
Yeah, slight overreaction on my part..but he was horrible.
“This isn’t necessary “ , as he pockets the ring!
I"ll know who to vote for next time." RIP Bob Hope for you are Sadly missed by all of your Fans etc.
So, what does that have to do with his entertaining people? Get your mind out of the illuminati crap. We know it's real and we don't have to be reminded. We come here to take our minds off the Jew illuminati.
Knut und Thomas forever For his last, "mature" half century BH sedulously and seditiously served them. Had Adolf H tapdanced entertainingly, that would divert you from his epic crimes. Because most whateverists give a pass to evil that charms. Read Brice Taylor's Thanks for the Memories to get a sense of what (e.g., human hunting parties on his estate) you disregard, let pass, reward, and so (with your progeny and all posterity) will get epic more of.
Redtail Bob had to go somethimes you know. NOBODY lives forever in there present from.
@@JudgeJulieLit yawns.....who gives a shit about that? nobody

How can I-we all not recognize Bob Hope in Heaven, making The Angels Of God laugh?
Great old film! Many thanks!
" Her schizo's about to phrenia " what a great line from Bob Hope
Also: "You can open the mailman later."
... and: "Blood! And it ain't mine, it's red."
Detective like Alan Ladd, Love it

Hi Angel X 🍕Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you 🍕
My favorite scenes are with Lon Chaney, Jr. - “Boulder Dam with legs.” 😂
good ol'school stuff here~~gotta love it~~last scene is priceless
One of Bob hope best films on his own. I love this and the paleface. Bob was simply brilliant in this film and I watch it every Sunday along with John Wayne film called mclintock as they’re great Sunday afternoon viewing. I never get tired of watching them.
Haha, McClintock. "Shoot him daddy, shoot him right now!" Stephanie Powers, my first crush.
I like Son of Paleface more than Paleface.
I like the old movies. Thanks..
That's when Hollywood was Hollywood.

Just love Bob Hope's movies. One better than the nexy! They don't make nice movies lice this anymore
1:22:28 "Aha, Ray Milland's been here!" - Ray Milland had won the Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of an alcoholic in Billy Wilder's _The Lost Weekend_ the year before.
The one liners are priceless.
James Korner "Don't go feminine on me- don't go masculine either."
Loved the Allan Ladd Surprise etc.
Bob on his deathbed was asked by one of his kids, " cremation or the regular burial". Bob retorted," surprise me".
Haim Ben Avraham The late Mo Udall, a US Congressman, said once he wanted to be buried in Chicago, so he could remain active in politics.
Great Oldie. The good 'Ol days when a little comedy mixed with the story line blended with a few good actors made for fun watching in black and white.
Really enjoyed the upload Pizza. Thanks
Another great picture show!
I'm here for the one-liners!
james Armijo "Don't go feminine on me; don't go masculine either."
'And how is she, mentally?' When I came to, I had a lump on my head the size of my head. Inside, Toscanini was conducting the Anvil Chorus with real blacksmiths. Hope: "That's their racket: they're trying to make people think everybody's crazy. " Cops: "Yeah, but with you, they had a head start."
"I get air sick when I step on a thick carpet."
Bob hope is great😂😂😂😅😅😅😂 like if was just yesterday . Thank you for sharing
Excellent film. Thanks for posting.
Featuring the funniest cameo by Bing Crosby in a Bob Hope movie.
And the funny thing is, the warden calls out "Hey Harry, the execution is off!"...and, of course, Bing's real name was "Harry Lillis Crosby"!
Jerry Jaye Wow 😳 good catch! Never knew that.
Cuddles.
Good Crosby cameo at the end. "Boy, he'll take any kind of a part", quips Bob. Ha ha ha ha:)
Way to state what everybody heard.🤔😖🤐
Curtis Clary
Not sure what to make of this remark, but I'd merely typed in what tickled me on account the well-known Show Biz rivalry between Bing and Bob as an ongoing gag, and these final words of philosophical ridicule of someone in wry response to Crosby's pronounced disappointment of not getting to pull the switch sort of sums their on-screen competitive relationship. That's my point I suppose. Not trying to be annoyingly repetitive.
@@SwarthySkinnedOne You weren't being annoying. One of the great things about watching these older movies is remembering parts of the great dialogue. Some ppl are just seem bitter & have nothing better to do than try to crap on the happiness of others. You did nothing wrong & I for one, enjoy reading your kind of comments. Have a great day & never let someone like that get you down or try to steal your joy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wonderful..thank you
... back when movies were fun ...
Back when movies were movies!
This was the third time Bing Crosby and Alan Ladd were in a film together. God bless them.
I love when the plug keeps coming out of the wall socket!
Ghost breakers with Paulette Goddard and Bob was my fav.! Although this would be a close second..
Really fun movie!
Bing Crosby played the executioner at the very last scene.
Ah! Those early days!
This feels like the precursor to "Naked Gun" jokes! So much fun!
Daria Wells Surely you gest, and don't call me Shirley!(Airplane, 1980)
Nobody better then BoB Hope!
Very good movie.
Would you like a cigar? No thanks I'm driving

You welcome my friend 👍👍 I from Costa Rica 🇨🇷 🇺🇸
He was in a Bob Hope comedy My Favorite Brunette (1947), supported Randolph Scott in Albuquerque (1948) and had a support in The Counterfeiters (1948) and played a villain in 16 Fathoms Deep (1948) for Monogram Pictures, a remake of his 1934 film.
Love for BOB 🌺

God must have loved Bob Hope
Thanks for the great film and great cast! Congratulations from Brasil!
I'm surprised that it is in such pristine condition
@@MrJpartridge This is an illegal upload of the 2017 restoration released by Kino International. You have an honest face, so I trust you won't tell anyone.
@@TheStockwell No offense, but it's not illegal. Paramount didn't renew their claim on the copyrights when they came due in 1975, so it's public domain now.
@@redlinemando No doubt about it, copyrights are complicated things. A film is clearly in the public domain - until the fine print kicks in. A silent film can be absolutely, unquestionably copyright domain. But, if someone spends time, money, and effort to restore it, then THAT version is theirs - because of what they did to spruce it up. Paramount let their claim on "My Favorite Brunette" expire, which is why there are so many low quality versions around. Kino International hunted down a first generation print of the film, cleaned it up, and that made it theirs. The "1975 Rule" doesn't apply to newly remastered versions which can be registered as new works.
The restoration of 1925's "Metropolis" or the decades of work put into hunting down and restoring every frame of Abel Gance's 1927 "Napoleon" - neither film is public domain because they are old or because the original versions are in the public domain.
If Martin Scorsese spends a decade restoring a film by D.W. Griffith, it's not public domain simply because the original film's copyright has expired. For that matter, a new recording by the Berlin Philharmonic of the Beethoven Ninth isn't public domain just because Beethoven died nearly two centuries ago.
No doubt about it, copyrights are complicated things. When a film is released, its copyright status is made legal by simply adding the words "Copyright 2020 Paramount Pictures." Sounds simple. But if a studio forgets to add that little notice, they've automatically released the film into the public domain. That's the law. In 1963, Universal released "Charade," a Stanley Donen film starring Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant with a score by Henry Mancini. Guess what phrase was left off the films credits and what that meant. Yep - Universal spent all their money to release a film into the public domain.
@@TheStockwell Well..............I think I understand what you're saying. If this posting is the cleaned up version, then I would presume it is indeed a copywritten work & falls into the category you've mentioned. You're right about copyrights being complicated.
I suppose film & music copyrights are two very different things. It is my understanding that music copyrights run out after 75 yrs & a song becomes public domain. With some of the new laws put into place, I could very well be mistaken about that.
Are you a copywrite lawyer by chance? If so, can you tell me, in the music industry, how does "work for hire" work if the person for hire was never paid for their time & talents as was agreed by the employer? I was on a nationally released album recorded in 2008 & was never paid for my vocals & instrumental work. What are my rights there & how do I go about collecting that was agreed to? I have no written agreement, but only verbal & my name appears on the album credits. It wasn't a huge amount of money agreed upon, but I am entitled to it. I could probably get a former band mate to vouch for the conversation that took place.
Watching this wonder movie makes me ask, "What happened to Hollywood?"
Comment #2 - Wow @Pizzaflix, a new genre "comedy-noir"! Excellent flick! The sauce is strong with this one :)
Comedy Noir with a Alan Ladd cameo! Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX
Haha, hearong that Betty Hutton on 78 was great! I know Betty and Bob worked together on USO tours so that was probably his idea.
Great movie!! Bob Hope was a bit risque with his jokes. I was surprised!
Risque yes, but crude and rude, never! There's a fine line between risque and downright rude and dirty, and Bob never stepped over it. He was a master of the one-liners, like many others, of the era.
Great quality.
