The French court will never be the same when Bob Hope gets through with it! A barber in the court of King Louis XV, Monsieur Beaucaire (Hope, My Favorite Brunette), falIs in Iove with a beautifuI maid (Joan CauIfieId, Larceny). When the king has had enough of the inept barber’s shenanigans, Beaucaire is Ied to the guiIlotine where he is about to lose his head!
