Dorothy LAMOURLovelight In The Starlight
There are two things for which Dorothy Lamour
will probably be best remembered. The first is the famous sarong she sported in
several of her fifty-two films, and the second the way she kept, or rather tried
to keep, order between Bing Crosby and Bob Hope in the 'Road' pictures. She had
lots of fun playing one off against the other, demonstrating how adept she could
be at holding her own against the scheming pair. Look at any of her pictures
now, moving or still, and it becomes easy to see why she was one of an elite
class of female stars such as Betty Grable, Jane Russell, Lana Turner and Rita
Hayworth who were favourite pin-ups of World War II servicemen. Indeed, Life
magazine in 1941 declared her to be the No. 1 pin-up of the U.S. Army.
