This does not cost you any extra money, of course.Call Me Bwana ** (1963, Bob Hope, Anita Ekberg, Edie Adams, Lionel Jeffries) – Classic Movie Review 6550īob Hope is pleasantly enough showcased in director Gordon Douglas’s 1962 British-made farcical comedy, which turns out to be adequate though rather low-fun entertainment.

There’s nothing quite like watching a movie from the Golden Age of Hollywood. Watch Call Me Bwana on Prime or buy the dvd on Amazon – either way, if you’re a Bob Hope fan, you’re in for a great time. Her chemistry with Hope was so natural and they played off of one another perfectly – nothing was “forced” about it at all. I also really liked Anita Ekberg in the role of Luba, but I loved Edie Adams as Frederica – I wish she had been in the movie even more than she was. We both enjoyed the movie a lot – truth be told, I’m not sure what sort of person wouldn’t enjoy a Bob Hope movie… but I darn sure know it isn’t anyone I would have married!īob Hope is his usual fast-with-the-jokes, lovable self. He watched a fun Bob Hope movie with me a few weeks ago, Call Me Bwana with Anita Ekberg and Edie Adams as Hope’s leading ladies. Unless, of course, it’s Elvis, then it’s usually accepted.
If it’s a musical, we have to watch it without him even in the house! He just does not “get” the whole musical thing. My cats and I enjoy all of the others without him.
