Off Limits

Off Limits is the first and only teaming of comedy legends Bob Hope (My Favorite Spy) and Mickey Rooney (The Atomic Kid). Bob Hope plays a boxing trainer who loses his one and only champion to the draft and decides to enlist, so he could keep an eye on his prized fighter. He is left holding the laces when his boxer is discharged - until enlisted private and amateur boxer Herbert Tuttle (Rooney) asks Bob to train him. Bob is more interested in Tuttle's aunt (Marilyn Maxwell, Rock-A-Bye Baby) than actually training the young contender. This screwball comedy was directed by George Marshall (Fancy Pants).
