This B movie could have been more involving.

Stuart Erwin deserved better than this slice of B movie Americana with overage leads. Directed by Tryon, the leading man from LONESOME and father of Tom, it makes a worthwhile attempt to break with the over familiar forms of second feature knockabout, but invention isn't equal to ambition.

The plot has Erwin's life transformed, from mother dominated insurance salesman to go getter, by the discovery of a thousand dollar note. This cut price Mark Twain stuff is interrupted by unfunny routines like the horse standing on the bill or George Chandler's demonstration of the brakes failed car.

The attempt to show back blocks US on which it all pivots is undermined because it looks more like B movie US. Still the piece has more interest than most of what was done on that budget.
