what film is this??

Chinatown, Schminatown. The entire picture was shot at a British studio. And Chinese food, or at least an Americanized version of it, has been popular in the U.S. since the early 20th century.
And was the young Joan Collins gorgeous, or what?

They are not really in Hong Kong. They are somewhere in US Chinatown in the old old old old old old old days well before chicken chow mein become a national cuisine in USA !

Part 3 - "We were standing in the middle of the set getting the final light checks for our love scene, and Bing had spat at least three times that morning.... I arranged my face into the correct loving expression to gaze into Crosby's bland blue eyes and smell his rancid breath and wondered again how people could think an actress's life was just a bowl of cherries." (Joan Collins Past Imperfect: An Autobiography, Berkley Book, 1985, p183-84)

Part 2 - "He did not endear himself to the crew, and he had the revolting habit of spitting on the set or wherever he happened to be. We spent days shooting on stage that had sawdust on the floor, and he would clear his throat and aim a great wad of pipe spit on the piles of sawdust scattered around, to the chagrin of the tiny Cockney in charge of sweepig the set.... Crosby puffed away on his pipe, oblivious to all the activity going on around him."

Quote from Joan Collins' book "Joan Collins Past Imperfect: An Autobiography"
Part 1 - "I liked Bob Hope immensely.... Bing Crosby, on the other hand, was a different breed: offhand, grumpy and vague. He appeared me to always as an old man acting very young, or a young man who looked old. His face was like a piece of crumpled tissue paper and I never felt his eyes when he looked at me. They looked through me."

joan wasn't as complimentary towards crosby whom she said was cold and had the revolting habit of spitting on the set, a cleaning man reportedly said to joan
"you poor thing, imagine having to kiss him, i'd rather kiss hitler!"

Joan Collins has said that working with Bob Hope was one of the best experiences of her professional career. She described him as being 'adorable'. Such lovely fun chemistry between those two. |
