		Paramount Pictures signed Lamour to a contract in 1936, creating an exotic southseas image for the young actress: she wore her fabled sarong for the first time in Jungle Princess (1936), the first of three nonsensical but high-grossing "jungle" films in which the ingenuous island girl asked her leading man what a kiss was.

		Lamour's latest film acting job to date was in the 1976 TV movie Death at Love House, though she has been a most loquacious participant in the many Bob Hope TV birthday specials and was recently the sprightly subject of an interview conducted by Prof.

	What's Sarong with this Picture? The Development of the Star Image of Dorothy Lamour
		Lamour appeared in a sarong in 11 of those films, meaning that fully two-thirds of her roles during that ten-year span did not call for her to wrap herself in any manner of South Seas attire.
		Lamour appears in a sort of sequined bikini that is accented by an enormous polka-dotted bow on her head and a fantastically long polka-dotted chiffon train.
		Lamour is defined both in terms of the sarong and in terms of her alleged rejection of the sarong.

	Dorothy Lamour Reviews
		As Lamour commented in her autobiography ("My Side of the Road"), it was strange to see Hope play a draft-dodger and goldbrick when compared to his real-life efforts to bring a little humor into the lives of our troops stationed overseas.
		When an exotic brunette by the name of Carlotta Montay (Dorothy Lamour) mistakes him for a detective, he decides to throw caution to the wind and handle her case himself.
		Dorothy Lamour's character remains serious and reserved throughout, but this doesn't slow Bob Hope down, as he quite easily carries the movie's load of comedy single-handedly.

		Dorothy began life as Mary Leta Dorothy Slaton, was Miss New Orleans of 1931, and sang in her first hubby Herbie Kaye's band on the way to Hollywood and her trademark attire, the sarong.
		Dorothy was just a lovely ray of sunshine before the squall that threw Mae West overboard as far as network radio was concerned on the infamous "Mae West as Eve" broadcast of that show, which is available on the Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy Collection.
		The War War II years saw Dorothy give her all (with a sarong and a song) for the war effort, and the "Road Crew" really were on the road a great deal!

		The point is they've got this thin plot on which to hang a series of hit-and-miss jokes, coming fast enough to make it just all right and a certain amount of time to see who gets Dorothy Lamour, while maintaining their fierce and friendly and wisecracking rivalry.
		Later on Dorothy Lamour sings "Personality", and is her usual charming self...
		A further note on Lamour - she's luxuriously beautiful here, an ice-cream sundae with curves (why she's never ranked with the decade's top screen sirens is unfathomable: she's every bit the looker that Lake, Grable, Hayworth & Sheridan were, and a better singer besides).

		Bing and Bob wind up with the map, and pass themselves off as the two cold-blooded killers—leading to a series of comedic misadventures, and an inevitable meeting with Dorothy Lamour (playing Sal, a nightclub singer and the daughter of the map’s original owner).
		This fourth outing for the team is amongst their most inspired (edged out only by the previous entry in the series, Road to Morocco), with the gags flying fast and furious throughout the entire 90 minute running time.
		Hope and Crosby play off each other perfectly, and even Lamour (who had a difficult time adjusting to all the ad-libbing in the first films) appears completely at ease by this point.

		Wrapped in her trademark sarong for 1936's The Jungle Princess or conventionally clad for 1952's The Greatest Show on Earth, the sultry brunette was one of the '40s' most popular stars -- and a stellar saleswoman for war bonds.
		Born Mary Leta Dorothy Slaton in the charity ward of a New Orleans hospital, Lamour rose to $450,000-a-picture leading lady (her last role: a murder victim in 1987's Creepshow 2).
		During her movie screen test, recalled Edith Head, who designed Lamour's outfit for Jungle Princess, "Dorothy let down her waist-length hair, stuck a flower in it and got the part." Says a friend, actor Len Hughes, 66: "She was a little embarrassed by the sarong.

		Our Favorite and Least Favorite Movies of 2005 They can't all be winners, but this year, despite the many complaints about the quality of movies in theaters, we still found the good mixed in among the bad.
		As formulaic as these movies are (Bob and Bing banter cleverly - meet the beautiful Dorothy Lamour - and have mildly amusing but completely unbelievable adventures), it is easy to forget how popular they were.
		Today the wisecracks and comic situations seem antiquated to the point of absurdity, but to a country at war that was still dealing with the aftermath of the Great Depression they were the perfect escape.
