Full Film

Jimmy Haskell is the owner of a music store. His uncle, C.J. Haskell, dislikes music and has long wanted Jimmy to join him in his health food business. Jimmy agrees only after his music store closes. When Jimmy arrives at his uncle's place, he is confronted by members of the McCorkle family, who play in Heidt's band and often practice near C.J.'s business. C.J. is infuriated and attempts to stop the band using the police. Jimmy unintentionally throws a tomato at him, which makes a good impression on the band and the McCorkles, who do not know his true identity. Molly McCorkle falls in love with him.・・・・・・

1941年のPot o' Gold。
ロマンス、ミュージカルコメディである。

元ネタがあって、タイトルと同名のラジオ番組。
ホスト(この映画にも出ているHorace Heidt)が電話かけた時に、出たら1000ドルが得られるというものらしい。


Erickson, Hal (2014). From Radio to the Big Screen: Hollywood Films Featuring Broadcast Personalities and Programs. McFarland. ISBN 9781476615585. In all future interviews, James Stewart would cite Pot o' Gold as his worst picture.page 186

にあるが、主演のジェームズ・ステュアートは出演作の中で最悪だったと言っている。
確かにストーリーもあれだし、ステュアート主演じゃなかったら、ここで取り上げるような映画でもない。
