Bachelor in Paradise





As stated in my last post, the 1961 movie Bachelor in Paradise, starring Bob Hope and Lana Turner, is a slice of 1950s heaven. Great tract houses, cool furnishings, awesome cars, killer clothes and simpler times, ah, simpler times. Bob plays a bachelor author who moves to the suburbs to write a book on housewives. He meets Lana, who is the realtor. Some photos from the movie show the following: people who work in offices wear clothes! No underwear is visible! No flip flops! No short shorts or stretch pants! No sweatpants! I work in an office and believe me, dignity is a thing of the past. Built in bars with TV consoles in your bachelor pad! Awesome car in the driveway!
