steve d Hope makes it cute.. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Bob Hope is a UN official who is put in charge of a baby left at the New York City UN. Bob Hope wisecracks and hilarity ensure as confirmed bachelor Hope struggles caring for the child as the UN struggles with what to do with the child. What ends up happening is that female representatives from countries around the world all vie to adopting the child, including Yvonne "Lily Munster" De Carlo and Barbara Bouchet. Hugh Downs also has a cameo as himself. It's not a classic, but entertaining enough if you like Bob Hope. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member "it's a fun little comedy with the typical humor of the era, a rather predictable ending, and quite a bit of heart." Full review at: voluptuousvinyl.com/blogs/barbara-bouchet/83331715-barbara-bouchet-film-review-a-global-affair-1964 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member A Global Affair is a cute little comedy with a moderately amusing performance by Bob Hope and a slew of beautiful foreign actresses. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Another Hope sex-farce. This time it is built around Hope finding a home for a baby left in the United Nations' building. This has to be one of the most under-rated Hope outings. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
