Movie Info

The last of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello's three MGM features, Abbott & Costello in Hollywood is a loose remake of Buster Keaton's Free and Easy. Bud and Lou play a pair of Tinseltown barbers who dream of becoming high-priced showbiz agents. Their first clients are Frances Rafferty and Robert Stanton, whose careers may be over before they begin when A&C manage to antagonize powerful producer Donald MacBride and stuck-up film star Carleton Young.

I enjoy Abbott and Costello, but I am not a huge fan of theirs. This is a decent entry into their list of films. Some good gags, most are just okay, and a few clunkers too. Good guest stars Lucille Ball, Butch Jenkins and Robert Z. Leonard are a plus.
