Hope, Bob
Entertaining The Troops
World War II affected everyone, and everyone found his or her own way of helping the cause. For American entertainers,
choices included enlisting, selling war bonds, visiting the wounded, and entertaining the troops. In this 90-minute
documentary, filmmaker Robert Mugge pays tribute to
hundreds of well-known (and not so well-known) performers who assisted the military both at home and abroad. Included
are rare period performances by the likes of Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Jack Benny, Dorothy Lamour, Frances Langford, the
Andrews Sisters, Abbott and Costello, Lena Horne, Carole Landis, Dinah Shore, Jerry Colonna, Danny Kaye, Eddie
"Rochester" Anderson, Larry Adler, Kay Kaiser, Cass Daley, Irving Berlin, Bugs Bunny, and many others, as well as
special appearances
by such prominent actors as Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Marlene Dietrich, Carole Lombard (in
the last appearance before her untimely death), and Edward G. Robinson.
