Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Howard Hawks excelled within a regimented Hollywood system leaving his mark on every film he made regardless of studio, stars, or genre. Hawks hoped to make this comedy with Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn, and that might have been a classic, but MAN'S FAVORITE SPORT? still gets by nicely. Rock Hudson stars as a San Francisco Abercrombie & Fitch salesman who has written a best-selling book on fishing, without ever having fished a day in his life. His boss enters him in a competition, and wacky dame Paula Prentiss is on hand to dish out as much trouble as possible. Hawks moves a little slower than previous works, cribbing some of his own early jokes, but is still dead funny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rock Hudson gives literal meaning to "cast" in the part, April 1, 2007
Roger Willoughby sells fishing equipment, he has also written a book on the subject. So it was inevitable that his boss would enter him in a major fishing tournament. However Roger has a secret. Watch as his secret unfolds and the unique solution.

Howard Hawks directed. As is Hawks' signature this movie is a little chatty like "Bringing up Baby" and "Monkey Business"

Roger Willoughby (Rock Hudson) is found in several precarious positions by his fiancée. At one time he has his tie caught in Easy Muller's (Maria Perschy) zipper. In addition to this Abigail (Paula Prentiss) is spotted coming from his bedroom in her night attire.

Norm Alden plays John Screaming Eagle, a local Indian who speaks like Tonto, and sells many sacred things such as Custer's scalp.

In the end, they are carried away. You will be carried away also by this great comedy.
