Product: My Favorite Brunette [VHS] (1947)
Rating: 4.0
Pretty goofy and a lot of fun
Ronnie Jackson dreams of being a hard-boiled detective, like his next-door neighbor, Sam McCloud, and when a beautiful woman walks into Sam's office and finds Ronnie there, she assumes he is Sam. What a break! But, Ronnie's big break soon turns into a big disaster when he finds himself on the run being hunted by a group of killers. Can Ronnie stay one step ahead of the bad guys and save his precious skin? Oh yeah, and the girl's skin too?This is a fun old movie, combining Bob Hope with siren Dorothy Lamour on the one hand, and the likes of Peter Lorre and Lon Chaney Jr. on the other. It's pretty lightweight, but also pretty goofy and a lot of fun. If you like that oddball humor that Bob Hope did so well then you will like this movie. I know that I did!(Review of My Favorite Brunette starring Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour)
