Bob Hope: A Comedian-Extraordinaire
Bob Hope lived to be 100 years old (1903-2003).
Hope (whose career spanned for 80 of those 100 years) is unanimously regarded as being the consummate entertainer where he excelled (like no one else ever has) as a comedian in movies, television, radio, and personal appearances.
Presented by the PBS Network through their "American Masters" series - This enjoyable bio-documentary is certainly a very entertaining 2-hour presentation where it hardly takes but a minute for the viewer to realize just why Bob Hope is looked upon as being one of the most top-rated performers of all-time.
