Movie review – “My Favourite Brunette” (1947) ***

Bob Hope spoofs film noir as a baby photographer who gets mistaken for a private eye. Dorothy Lamour is a femme fetale and Peter Lorre a villain; Lon Chaney Jnr has a support role and cameos are played by Alan Ladd and Bing Crosby. A fun, bright movie with the star in good form. I found the plot a little confusing at times.
