  • A superior DVD release of “Road to Bali”

    I owned a couple of other public domain DVDs of Road to Bali, both having a dark look to the picture and overall poor color resolution, not to mention the Paramount Pictures logo being cut from the beginning and end of the film. This Brentwood release uses a print apparently acquired from Columbia Pictures Television. It is in brilliant, vibrant color, and is complete from beginning to end. In addition, Road to Rio is included in this package, courtesy of the UCLA film archive. Each film is on a separate disc, and the quality of both is better than one normally expects from films this age. Without the distractions of sketchy picture and sound quality, missing footage, etc., one is free here to enjoy the antics and frequently-improvised dialogue of longtime friends Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. The plots may be thin, but no matter. It is great fun watching Bob and Bing in action, and Dorothy Lamour follows their lead like a trouper, plus she is quite lovely. These films are not for everyone, but Road to Bali is worth watching for the stunning color print alone. It is a revelation compared to lesser versions. Both movies come from a more innocent time, and are fit family viewing. They are recommended to people who remember those times, or enjoy madcap entertainment in the hands of true masters.

    I have always loved ."The Road to Rio". It's the best of the "road" movies to me. The sound quality of this film left something to be desired.

  • Roads to Rio and Bali

    Road to Rio: Not the best of the the Road Pictures but stiill that unique chemistry between two great entertainers. Rosd to Bali: one of my favorites the tone and style and techno(color) moves into that mid century spirit and the page turns in the book of American cultures. But the old innovative genius stll shines forth. Bali Hai, Apple pie and Fondue.
