Average Disney live-action film stars McKern and Pickles as con artists passing tomboy Foster off as rich widow Hayes's long-lost granddaughter to bilk her out of some valuable coins hidden on her estate. Little does sweet old lady Hayes know that another, kinder con man (Niven) has not talked the financially foundering widow into taking in dozens of orphans for their sakes but for her own. The kids perform household chores on the Hayes estate. Niven himself acts as the house's butler, chauffeur, gardener, and cavalry officer. After enough exposure to the kind-hearted Niven, Foster sees the error of her ways and helps save the estate. Fairly lackluster Disney effort is saved by Niven's great performance. leave a comment
