An American ambassador arrives in a small country that is being convulsed by political intrigue and civil unrest. He befriends the young boy who is to be the country's king, to ensure that the boy is prepared to take on the role and also to see that he lives long enough to assume the crown.—Anonymous

It's a troubled little country. When he arrives, they have only had one revolution that week!You can tell this movie was crafted just for [b]Will Rodgers[/b] style. It gives him excellent opportunities to lampoon governments and the stupid things they do. It also, shows how well he interacts with youngsters, and his rope tricks was a highlight of the movie for me -- he was fantastic!It's reassuring and sad to know that the government in 1931 was just as screwed up as it is today.Catch this one if you can. I think most will be surprised at how well it still plays in 2008.[img]http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/4625/tomato1bx7.jpg[/img][/left][/center]
