Will the real Casanova please stand up?
20 October 2023
Casanova has to depart due to monetary considerations. To help the merchants of the town retrieve their just due Pippo Popolino (Bob Hope) must take Casanova's place. Many people are counting on him to succeed on his new quest except for Elena Di Gambetta (Audrey Dalton) and her potential husband. Will he be able to bluff his way in and accomplish his mission or will his conscience get in its way?

We get to watch as he gets in compromising and sticky situations. You may find yourself kibitzing.

Aside from the fun Hope-type film, we get the pleasure of trying to name all the popular actors as they appear. There are more actors than names do you will have to remember where you saw them before.

Just a few: Bob Hope in Bachelor in Paradise (1961) Audrey Dalton in Kitten with a Whip (1964) Basil Rathbone in The Mark of Zorro (1940) Hugh Marlowe in The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) John Carradine in I Escaped from the Gestapo (1943) Lon Chaney Jr. In The Wolf Man (1941) Raymond Burr in Bride of the Gorilla (1951) Oliver Blake in Giant from the Unknown (1958) Vincent Price in Laura (1944) Anthony Warde in I Escaped from the Gestapo (1943)

This will make a great addition to your Bob Hope collection.
