Corny and Vapid--As Good as the Ritz Brothers Get

A corny plot, a vapid romantic subplot, and the dullness of stars Tony Martin and Marjorie Weaver make the best parts of this film the Ritz Brothers specialty numbers, including a parody of Walt Disney's "Sleeping Beauty." Never have hillbillies been so roundly ridiculed as in this tale of sneaky New Yorkers trying to bamboozle their way onto a radio show.
