    5.0 out of 5 starsA good set, but there are three re-releases included
    By calvinnme HALL OF FAMEVINE VOICE on March 29, 2010
    DISC 1:

    The Cat and the Canary (1939, 79 min.) - NEW TO DVD
    BONUS FEATURE:

    DISC 2:
    The Ghost Breakers (1940, 85 min.)
    Nothing But the Truth (1941, 91 min.) - NEW TO DVD
    BONUS FEATURES:
    Entertaining the Troops
    Command Performance 1944

    Photo Gallery
    Theatrical Trailer

    DISC 3:
    Road to Morocco (1942, 82 min.)
    The Paleface (1948, 91 min.)
    BONUS FEATURES:
    Command Performance 1945
    The "Buttons and Bows" Sing-Along
    Photo Gallery
    Theatrical Trailer

    The 3-disc set will contain 3 re-releases: Ghost Breakers (1940), Road to Morocco (1942), The Paleface (1948). There are more bonus features than most Universal sets as of late, though some may be recycled.
    The most ponderous thing here is the fact that they are including exactly one of the Hope/Crosby/Lamour Road movies.

    These films are seldom televised since the only two channels that show older movies - Turner Classic Movies and the Fox Movie Channel - do not have ready access to the Universal/Paramount library. That used to be the domain of AMC back when it meant American Movie Classics and not the American Merchandising Channel as it does today. Thus if you don't already have these films, this set is a welcomed treat.

    5.0 out of 5 starsThe Cat and the Canary, finally!
    By Native Texan on May 11, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    Two years ago my father and I sat down to watch The Cat and the Canary and he started saying the lines with Bob Hope, so I asked him when he last saw this movie. He replied, "I saw it once when it first came out, I was eleven years old."
    The lines in The Cat and the Canary are exactly that memorable - it's a great movie.

    3.0 out of 5 starsA mixed quality bag
    By M. S. Burns on June 30, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    The print of The Cat and the Canary is pristine; absolutely beautiful (I would give this film 5 stars). Unfortunately, the other movies in the collection did not get the same restoration treatment. The Ghost Breakers looks awful - full of 'sparkles' and other film artifacts - it has definitely not been restored.. The others vary in quality. I bought this collection for Canary (which has been a favorite for years). But you should be aware of the variation in quality of the different films here.

    3.0 out of 5 starsHalf satisfying!
    By feltonfan on June 17, 2010
    Good news first. First time release of Nothing But The Truth and Thanks For The Memories (not to be confused with Big Broadcast Of 1938 which features the song Thanks For The Memories). Next we have great news. The first release of The Cat And The Canary, one of Hope's finest films. Now the bad news. 3 (count em, 3) films in this set that have been previously released. Even the bonus features have been previously released! Save your money. Wait until this set goes below $20 or The Cat And The Canary gets a seperate release (whichever comes first).

    4.0 out of 5 starsOutstanding, with one exception
    By Gregor Mandella on January 21, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    The Bob Hope: Thanks for the Memories Collection is a nice grouping of some of his earlier pictures from 1938 to 1948. They each add a very nice addition to any ones collection of Hope classics, even if several have been released already as either stand alone movies or part of another collection.

    All are excellent quality with the exception of "The Ghost Breakers", which happens to be one of my favorite early Hope movies. It's just that the picture quality is horrible. It's very grainy and so different from the high quality of all the other movies of this Collection.

    I happen to own the stand alone version of "The Ghost Breakers" as well and it's picture quality is excellent. Very clear for a film that's 70 years old. It's hard to understand how Universal, which produced both the Collection reviewed here and the stand alone version of "The Ghost Breakers", can have the same film be reproduced so differently.

    Overall, this collection rates 5 stars but the fact that "The Ghost Breakers" picture quality is so poor takes it down a notch. I hope it's just my copy but somehow I'm doubtful of that. I wouldn't shy away from buying this for just that reason, though, especially because it includes "Thanks For The Memory", which is somewhat different from what I'm used to from Bob Hope. It's possibly different because it's one of his earliest film and he hasn't yet fallen into the stereotypical Hope role.

    This Collection is highly recommended regardless of any flaws in "The Ghost Breakers".

    5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent collection of Hope classics
    By Douglas M VINE VOICE on June 27, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    For anyone not familiar with the famous comedian, Bob Hope, this collection of films provides the perfect introduction to his golden period on film. Hope established a character who was part braggart, part coward but very human and likeable. The films fall into 3 categories: the rare "Thanks for the Memory", 3 forgotten classics with the vivacious Paulette Goddard and the familiar classics, "The Road to Morocco" and "The Paleface".

    The earliest film in the set is the rare "Thanks for the Memory" released in 1938. It teams Hope with charming Shirley Ross, using as its inspiration the song of the same name which was such a smash for the pair earlier in the year in "The Big Broadcast of 1938". Hope plays a straight romantic lead as a newlywed writer trying to establish his career while adjusting to his marital status and his wife's role as the major breadwinner. While the film has a fine supporting cast including the famous gossip columnist Hedda Hopper who is very good, the stage bound roots of the verbose script betray the stars and the film is dull entertainment. The highlights are the 2 songs, the superb "Two Sleepy People", another huge hit, and a touching reprise of the title song at the climax of the film.

    Two of the films with Paulette Goddard, "Cat and the Canary" and "Ghost Breakers", are spooky thrillers of the "old dark house" genre. Both have outstanding supporting casts, beautiful art direction and are very entertaining. These were the films which solidified Hope's film stardom. "Nothing but the Truth" is a more conventional but hilarious comedy about a man who agrees not to tell a lie for a day on a bet. In this role, Hope plays a "Cary Grant type" of leading man. These films were impeccably produced by Arthur Hornblow with top class sets, directions and costumes.    Read more ›
