An impoverished American sailor is fortunate enough to be passing the house of two rich gentlemen who has conceived the crazy idea of distributing a note worth one million pounds. The sailor finds that whenever he tries to use the note to buy something, people treat him as if he is a King and let him have whatever he likes for free. Ultimately, the money proves to be more troublesome than it is worth when it almost costs him his dignity and the woman he loves. (imdb)

Gentle comedy about how class and money are treated with a little cross-Atlantic culture clash thrown in.

Good fun. The little digs at the social order are well done too. A bit slushy at the end but they earnt it.

A version of a Mark Twain tale. Peck is excellent as usual, and this is a totally wholesome and fun look at how wealth is viewed.

The only aspect of this film more annoying than Peck chasing the runaway note, is the voice of Jane Griffiths.
