What My Favorite Blonde Is About

Larry Haines, a mediocre vaudeville comic, boards a train for Los Angeles and meets a blonde British agent carrying a coded message hidden in a brooch. Nazi agents are after her, and before he understands what is happening he is in the middle of the chase. Sidney Lanfield’s film sets the Bob Hope template of the war years: cowardly, fast talking, heroic by accident. Madeleine Carroll plays the agent. Seventy eight minutes running from train to plane, hotel to farmhouse, with the tempo never once dropping.
