Featuring Joan Bennett, Milton

The fun begins when the mayor, a
man with a sense of humor, assigns
Milton Berle to guard the Consulate.
His big job is to protect Otto Pre-
minger who, owing to circumstances,
isn't very popular, not even with his
pretty wife, Joan Bennett.
The consul, who is a playboy at
heart, gets himself into some gam-
bling difficulties, and what comes
from them makes up the plot of the
picture.
