This film features the first starring role for legendary comedian Jack Benny in a role completely different from his well know persona. Benny portrays Dr. John Harvey, a traveling medicine show owner and the lead huckster of the group. Dr. Harvey and his show come to a small town where a young woman and her brother live with and work for an abusive father. Dr. Harvey puts aside his greedy nature and takes a genuine interest in the two siblings while falling in love with the young woman. About to be married off by her father to an elderly millionaire, the young woman desperately waits for the arrival of Dr. Harvey to take her from the ceremony.

Bad Medicinal Dose
Jack Benny is one of my favorite comedians. It's about a traveling medicine show that dealt a bad dose of medicine for the viewer.
*The acting was so bad that I had to quit viewing it. The monologue was stiff and I noticed that when an actor was about to say a line, they would look directly at the camera before they faced the actor they were about to recite the monologue to.
*If your time has no value, then by all means purchase it. It's not worth the shipping and handling charges. This movie was one of a 50 pack Family Classics DVD movie collection.
