Buck Benny Rides Again(1940)
SPRING'S NO. 1 LAUGH HIT...THE BEST OF THE BENNY'S!
Buck Benny Rides Again Synopsis
Radio star Jack Benny, intending to stay in New York for the summer, is forced by the needling of rival Fred Allen to prove his boasts about roughing it on his (fictitious) Nevada ranch. Meanwhile, singer Joan Cameron, whom Jack's fallen for and offended, is maneuvered by her sisters to the same Nevada town. Jack's losing battle to prove his manhood to Joan means broad slapstick burlesque of Western cliches.
