James Cagney and Bob Hope at a Friar's Club Meeting. Bob Hope was 52 and James Cagney was 56. The year was 1955. For the young folks, here is something youve probably never seen before and you may never see again. For us older folks, this is the best of the best, and we had it for many years! This is a side of these two entertainers you hardly ever saw, but it shows you their enormous talent. Bob Hope, the best of comedians, and James Cagney, mostly cast as the bad guy, a gangster in the movies. Click HERE to watch the video!

Well done.
Bob Hope was the best comedian and entertainer ever IMO. Him and Phyllis Diller were the best comedy team.
James Cagney was a real Yanky doodle dandy.
