Helpless Parker, a princess, gets mixed up with a gang of hoodlums who have a problem delivering the protection they promise in this disappointing and weak film. She finds herself in jail, charged with stealing a horse, but by the finale her name is cleared and the horse takes the big
race. The story by Damon Runyon made it to the screen again in 1943 as the Abbott and Costello vehicle IT AIN'T HAY, but the old difficulty remained: how can Runyon's slang, wild metaphors, and effective use of the present tense be translated to film?
