1) DVD DVD Son of Paleface by Bci / Eclipse. I saw this movie when I was a kid and nearly died laughing. I decided to look it up on Amazon and have it in my collection. After viewing it with an ´adult eye´, it stands the test of time. Hope performs like a true Vaudivillian. It´s a laugh a minute. Jane Russell and Roy Rogers are a good supporting cast. And I believe it was Roy Rogers best role. Too bad that he was the cowboy who never kissed the girl. He had the potential to be a real romantic lead, which the film bears out.¤ 2) DVD DVD Son of Paleface by Bci / Eclipse. It´s like watching a cartoon comic but with real human actors! A very funny movie. Another reason why the humour is so intense is because the funny things that happen take place within a rather serious plot, so the humour comes when you least expect it. If you want to be caught off gaurd with a barrel full of laughs, then you must watch what I think is Bob Hope´s best movie!¤ 3) DVD DVD Son of Paleface by Bci / Eclipse. This movie is even better than The Paleface. They just don´t make ´em like this anymore. Comedy today is hurtfull and crass..The classic comedy actors and actresses aimed the jokes at themselves, not others. The laughs were never at the expense of anyone else. This movie belongs in any classic movie collection.¤ 4) DVD DVD Son of Paleface by Bci / Eclipse.

Bob Hope returned to the wild West in Son of Paleface, mining the rootin´ shootin´ genre for gag after gag. Hope plays Junior Potter--another variation on his lascivious, cowardly, yet somehow endearing persona--a college boy who´s come to California seeking his father´s hidden gold. What he finds is an empty treasure chest, a pile of unpaid bills, vengeful Indians, buxom Jane Russell (as a saloon girl by day, wily bandit by night), and singing cowboy Roy Rogers. It´s prime silliness, an ancestor to movies like Airplane! that never let a moment go by without an absurd joke. Russell sashays about in spectacular form-fitting outfits, Rogers yodels a few tunes, and Hope snivels and wheedles his way out of endless scrapes. Good-natured slapstick (though its depiction of Native Americans will raise the hackles on politically correct viewers). --Bret Fetzer¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
