Why don't you die like a man? Because I'd rather LIVE like a woman!

I want to thank Robbolini for reminding me of that excellent line from the movie, one of my favorite Bob Hope lines ever! What can you say about this movie, A TRUE CLASSIC, A GEM, HILARIOUS? Yes all of these.

Bob Hope proves he's the King of Comedy with a truckload of his classic one liners, as the cowardly SYLVESTER THE GREAT, by chance runs into the runaway Princess, Margaret, portrayed by the BEAUTIFUL VIRGINIA MAYO.

Walter Slezak as Governor La Roche & Victor McLaglen as the HOOK are trying to get Ms. Mayo & Bob runs interference with help of Walter Brennan, ie Featherhead...the plot is funny & entertaining, as is the scene in the bar when Bob is forced to drink a few "short beers", which are actually pitchers of beer...

All the bad guys want Virginia Mayo, ie Princess Margaret & the map for the buried treasure...the film culminates with an awesome climax & a twist ending! BOB HOPE AT HIS ABSOLUTE BEST, A MUST SEE CLASSIC!
