Tired of making the empty comedies that line the studio’s pockets, hot young director John Sullivan (Joel McCrea) decides to make a film about the struggling American and sets out on a journey to experience their hardships. What begins as a pretentious expedition to find “the truth” about his new subject turns into one of the great satires and screwball comedies Hollywood ever produced when whip-smart, blonde bombshell Veronica Lake joins Sullivan and upends all of his plans.
