Produced by Bud Pollard Road to Hollywood features Bing Crosby Luis Alberni and Ann Christy. At this time Pollard was primarily doing low-budget films with all-black casts but in this movie Pollard stitches together clips from four Educational Pictures/Mack Sennett shorts that Bing Crosby had done: I Surrender Dear (1934) One More Chance (1931) Billboard Girl (1932) and Dream House (1933). These were all two-reel comedies in which Crosby did physical slapstick comedy in the Sennett tradition and sang his hit songs. Pollard himself appears on-screen to do a rather awkward narration that stitches the clips together and ends the film with a short mawkish tribute to Crosby that nominates him for film-star sainthood.

ABBA mania: that was the name given to the hysterical worship of four Swedes that enthralled Australia during an intense period in the mid-1970s. This phenomenon reached its high-point as ABBA conducted an enormously successful tour Down Under in March 1977. The feverish madness of the tour was captured on film in director Lasse Hallstrom's ABBA - The Movie which remains as one of precious few opportunities to experience ABBA live onstage. In the film we follow radio disc jockey Ashley Wallace as he tries to hunt down the group for an exclusive in-depth interview. Will he make it or not?
