Where There's Hope

In 1985, Bob Hope received the Kennedy Center Honors.  The same year as previous honorees I’ve posted here, Lerner & Loewe.  There’s a nice introduction by Kirk Douglas, a good film bio, and an amusing, but odd speech by Chevy Chase.  And then, for the entertainment section, surprisingly this is handled a little different than most.  Not surprisingly, that’s because it focuses on patriotism and his overseas trips for decades entertaining troops during wartime. 

After the program’s introduction, it starts about two minutes in if you want to jump forward.  And the Hope tribute is broken into two videos.
