{{quote|''There had been comedy teams in movies before, of course, and fast-paced dialogue, but the Road pictures introduced something new. The interplay between [[The Marx Brothers|Groucho and Chico Marx]], say, or [[The Burns and Allen Show|George Burns and Gracie Allen]], had an abstract, almost surreal quality. The witty repartee of 1930s screwball comedies like ''[[My Man Godfrey]]'' or ''[[Bringing Up Baby]]'' was too polished and stylized to be mistaken for anything but movie dialogue. [[Bob Hope|Hope]] and [[Bing Crosby|Crosby]] seemed like ordinary guys — [[Shaped Like Itself|like Hope and Crosby]], in fact — perfectly attuned to each other's thoughts, moods, obsessions and vulnerabilities.''|Richard Zoglin, in his essay on ''[[Road to Morocco]]'' for the [[National Film Registry]]}}
