A Guide to the Hope-Crosby "Road" Movies

Once you hit the road with Bob and Bing, you won't want to go back.

Explore the world!  Have an adventure!  See the sarong!

Seldom in the history of film have two comedic actors combined to make such a hilariously entertaining series of pictures as Bob Hope and Bing Crosby did with the "Road" movies.  If you want to have a zany good time, then these flicks are for you!

For the best viewing experience, you ought to watch the "Road" movies in chronological order, at least to begin.  The jokes continue and develop from film to film, and you won't want to miss a single laugh.  The basic formula remains the same:  Hope and Crosby are two-bit performers and con men who are low on cash and high on their resolve to remain bachelors.  Then, in some exotic, faraway land, they encounter Dorothy Lamour, and all their resolve goes out the window.  It's a free-for-all fight to determine who gets Dottie, and both Bing and Bob are sure they've won her heart.  But only one will truly get it, and there are plenty of dangers along the way--hostile natives, quack doctors, foreign spies, spitting camels, and one wild ape in a cage.  Don't miss the action, the excitement, the romance, and the African Queen.  You'll find them all on the road with Bob and Bing.

To find out more about the seven "Road" movies, just click on the links:

Road to Singapore (1940)

Road to Zanzibar (1941)

Road to Morocco (1942)

Road to Utopia (1946)

Road to Rio (1947)

Road to Bali (1952)

Road to Hong Kong (1962)

There's no need for the fun to end after you watch the "Road" movies, because now you can bring the wonderful music from these pictures wherever you may travel with this CD!
