THE LEMON DROP KID (Theatrical Release USA 1951)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.2|5.0 Starsìììì

The Lemon Drop Kid—one of the better Bob Hope films—presents good, clean comedy without his trademark touch of risqué dialogue. The story is fresh with well-executed dialogue. Good work for everyone in producing this Christmas story that still entertains despite its age.
