Description
Two penniless beaux are forced to flee their creditors and roam about the countryside seeking salvation by marrying women of great beauty (if possible) and fortune (without question). It all works wonderfully well, although not before such matters as a highway robbery, mistaken identity, much sexual innuendo, sword-play, heavy drinking and a comment on the nature and destiny of the genders, separate and together. — Tappan Wilder
