斯坦利．克雷默执导，联美公司制作的本片，讲述的是一个反映人性阴暗面的生活剧。史马尔考文超车坠崖身亡，在临死前透露在圣塔罗西公园埋着一大笔钱。知道这个消息的有八个人，各种不同的身份、不同的背景、不同的职业，为了独得这份意外之财，分别展开了可笑、惊险、疯狂的争夺。谁知他们所争夺的是15前被抢劫的赃款，他们所作的一切都在警方的掌握之中。宝藏终于被挖出，克劳派队长因为退休在即，而退休金又少得可怜，所以便假公济私，夺款潜逃，但最终被警方抓获，使发财梦想成为泡影。本片以嬉笑怒骂的方式，将人性的丑陋形态一表无遗，将人物角色刻划得入木三分，虽闻笑声，但却可见编导的良苦用心。

Conrad Nagel, representing the Hollywood movie community, and Jack Benny, representing the Broadway stage community, act as the interlocutors of a musical comedy revue. A plethora of chorus boys and girls are featured front and center in some of the song and dance numbers, and provide back-up to some other acts. But the revue primarily is a vehicle to highlight a cavalcade of Hollywood movie and Broadway stage stars. One early running gag has both Nagel and Benny playing straight man to Cliff Edwards, who just wants a nice introduction to his act. Edwards would return later to be featured along with the Brox Sisters in one of the highlights of the second act, a production number around the song "Singin' in Rain", complete with rain soaked stage. A reprise of the song with the entire cast acts as the revue's finale.

Radio star Jack Benny, intending to stay in New York for the summer, is forced by the needling of rival Fred Allen to prove his boasts about roughing it on his (fictitious) Nevada ranch. Meanwhile, singer Joan Cameron, whom Jack's fallen for and offended, is maneuvered by her sisters to the same Nevada town. Jack's losing battle to prove his manhood to Joan means broad slapstick burlesque of Western cliches.
