1942
- 1942 · Comedy · 1h 18m
My Favorite Blonde is a 1942 American comedy film directed by Sidney Lanfield and starring Bob Hope and Madeleine Carroll. Based on a story by Melvin Frank and Norman Panama, the film is about a vaudeville performer who gets mixed up with British and German secret agents in the days just before the United States' entry into World War II.
My Favorite Blonde (1942) is a breezy Bob Hope comedy which satirizes Hitchcock-type thrillers of its era. Hope plays a burlesque player with a penguin act who gets embroiled with Nazi agents and beautiful blonde spy Madeleine Carroll, who previously appeared in Hitchcock's The 39 Steps (1935).
