Stanley Snodgrass (Bob Hope), a talentless aspiring song-and-dance man, gets canned from his gig in the chorus of a New Jersey-based vaudeville show, a vehicle for starlet Irene Bailey (Arlene Dahl). But when a crazed fan (Robert Strauss), determined to kill anyone cast opposite Irene, attacks her latest co-star, Irene's boyfriend, Harry (Fred Clark), casts the bumbling Snodgrass in the leading man's place. Stanley can't believe his luck -- until he finds out about the knife-wielding killer.

Audience Member Hard to find movie boasts of some fun musical numbers and more cartoon gags for Hope. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Occasionally amusing. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member The costumes are amazingly ornate and both Arlene Dahl and Rosemary Clooney look great in them but hambone Hope is an acquired taste whose simpleton persona wears thin fast. Martin was never much of an actor but is a fine singer although he oddly does little of that. Rosemary is also underused only getting a few numbers. The supporting cast contains both Fred Clark and William Demarest both of whom add a little zest to the proceedings. Certainly colorful and not terrible it's not very memorable either. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Watching this musical now...I love Bob Hope...hokey as heck....but I chose it for Rosemary Clooney...I love her! What a voice! Silly and good fun kind of film! Also stars Arlene Dahl (Gorgeous!) and Tony Martin (Awesome voice!) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
