''Hold That Blonde'' is a 1945 film directed by George Marshall. It stars Eddie Bracken and Veronica Lake.〔http://www.allmovie.com/work/hold-that-blonde-95405〕 Bracken plays a kleptomaniac who unwittingly becomes involved with a gang of jewel thieves, including Lake, whom he promptly falls in love with, initially unaware of her true occupation. The part was a favorite of Lake's because it represented a change of pace for her ("it's a comedy, rather what Carole Lombard used to do") and she liked working with George Marshall.〔Change of Pace in Roles Beckons Veronica Lake: Star to Pause at Career's Crossroads Roles to Shift for Veronica Schallert, Edwin. Los Angeles Times (1923-Current File) (Angeles, Calif ) 08 July 1945: C1. 〕 Officially it is a remake of ''Paths to Paradise'', a 1925 silent comedy starring Raymond Griffith, inasmuch as both are based on the same play, ''Heart of a Thief'' by Paul Armstrong. However, the storyline was almost entirely reworked to fit Bracken's nebbish persona, to the extent that the two films have almost nothing in common apart from a few sight gags and a party sequence in which a valuable necklace is the target of the thieves. ==Cast== *Eddie Bracken as Ogden Spencer Trulow III *Veronica Lake as Sally Martin *Albert Dekker as Insp Callahan *Frank Fenton as Mr. Phillips *George Zucco as Dr. Paval Storasky *Donald MacBride as Mr. Kratz *Lewis Russell as Henry Carteret *Norma Varden as Mrs. Carteret *Willie Best as Willie *Jack Norton as the drunk 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hold That Blonde」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
