The Road to Morocco Reviews
On the Road #3
One of the best of the seven "Road" movies (this is the third) in the series starring Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, and Dorothy Lamour. It's totally nonsensical - the boys are shipwrecked off Africa and chase after Lamour, who's the princess of Morocco. The jokes fly, some good (many of the best gags are self-deprecating and refer to real-life instances or routines from previous movies), some not, and Crosby sings a few songs ("Moonlight Becomes You" is probably the best). These movies were a whole mind set, and it helps a lot to buy into the sheer goofiness and fluff of them. Let your mind go free and the picture can be a lot of fun to watch.
My Favorite Blooper
I'm not going to go into why the Hope & Crosby ROAD films were so much fun--enough folks have done that already.
I will say that ROAD TO MOROCCO features one of my favorite bloopers:
It's right at the beginning. Bing and Bob are stuck in the Sahara desert when a camel takes turns licking their faces. When they see the camel, they're thrilled at their good fortune, exchanging lines while the wary camel keeps leaning back--
Then--PTOOEY! The camel spits right in Bob Hope's face. Unscripted. Right in the middle of his line. And Bing laughs out loud.
And they left it in the film!
Priceless!
