When the story begins, Henry Haskell (Eddie Bracken) is miserable. When he shows up for his date with his long-time girlfriend, he finds her at the church...getting married to some other guy! But his sadness is short-lived as he soon discovers oil on his property. His friend suggests he go on holiday...to enjoy the money and forget about his girlfriend. So, Henry heads to New York City where this rube seems ripe for the picking. Soon he has two women who want him---one who clearly only cares about his money and the other, well, time will tell.

This is a VERY high energy film, thanks not only to the plot but by the appearance of Spike Jones and His City Slickers. This band certainly isn't subtle or sophisticated...but they are fun. In fact, that could be said about the whole film...not exactly sophisticated but still fun.
