What might put you off
  • Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • Made in 1967: an older pace and style.

To restore his family's lost wealth, a young Boston lad stows away on a ship bound for the California Gold Rush. When their very proper butler gives chase, all roads lead to nonstop adventure, wild and woolly characters, and a lucky punch that leads to a bonanza of belly laughs!
