this picture both George Sanders and Bob Hope are doing what comes very naturally to both of them. Sanders is being smooth, self centred and sure of himself and Hope is gagging for all he s worth, with just that touch of pathos that makes one wonder whether this very normal comedian does not hide a streak of greatness In himself somewhere.
