Crafted Nothing but the Truth

When glib stockbroker Steve Bennett (Bob Hope) challenges the dubious ethics of his boss (Edward Arnold), the old man responds with a $10,000 bet that Steve can’t go 24 hours without telling a lie. Steve swallows hard and takes the wager-and, spending the next day on a yachting party, he starts paying a comical price for his brutal honesty. Funny take on the stage hit co-stars Paulette Goddard, Helen Vinson, Leif Erickson. 90 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
