Road to Singapore (1940)

Directed by Victor Schertzinger
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Universal)

The first in the Bing & Bob road series sees the inseparable buddies swearing off women and going to the tropical isles. They soon find a live-in maid in the form of Dorothy Lamour, who cooks and cleans for the messy bachelors living in a straw hut. Inevitably, they both fall for Lamour and force her to choose which one she will marry. It all ends in a big native feast, in which they wear dark make-up, don dresses and do silly dances.
