The Road to Hollywood

"The Road to Hollywood" is a film Bing Crosby had no direct connection with--and the film was a creepy attempt to cash in on Crosby's popularity without having to pay him! The exploitation film director, Bud Pollard, took four of Crosby's early short films and spliced them apart into what he purports during his narration as the story of Crosby's rise to popularity. None of it is true and the film is just a shabby collection of early clips thrown together artlessly in an attempt to fool the public. He should have been ashamed of this and the film, understandably, is no in the public domain. While a few of the clips were humorous, the way they were assembled and with Pollard's narration, they are pretty much a waste of time.
