Out of the 3 movies Veronica Lake and Eddie Bracken were in together," Hold That Blonde " is definitely the best. Eddie is hilarious as the sweet-hearted kleptomaniac, who pick-pockets Veronica Lake. Trouble begins, as Eddie falls deeply in love with the beautiful Veronica , but she is mixed up with a gang of jewel thieves. The comical antics are endless, and the story moves at an enjoyable pace. Veronica Lake's role is a large part of this movie, and she has good timing, and gives an outstanding performance keeping up with comedian Bracken. It's a shame the studio couldn't have given the talented actress more roles like this, at least giving her a chance to prove that she had versatility, and was more than just a head of hair. I really appreciated watching this very entertaining comedy, that still holds up well and should be released on DVD for all to enjoy.
