Longfellow Deeds lives in a small town and leads a small-town kind of life, including playing the tuba in the town band. When a relative dies and leaves Deeds a fortune, Longfellow picks up his tuba and moves to the big city, where he becomes an instant target for everyone from the greedy opera committee to the sensationalist daily newspaper. Deeds outwits them all until Babe Bennett comes along. Babe is a hot-shot reporter who figures that the best way to get close to Deeds is to pose as a damsel in distress. When small-town boy meets big-city girl, anything can, and does, happen.
Longfellow Deeds lives a simple, quiet life in the small town of Mandrake Falls. He has never traveled, and he makes a living writing little ditties for greeting cards and the like. When his rich uncle dies, he learns that he has inherited $20 million. He moves to New York where everybody tries get something from him. The estates lawyer is desperate to get Deeds power of attorney if for no other reason than to cover up a deficit in the account. They all view Deeds as a country bumpkin, but in his own simple way, Deeds just uses common sense and usually ends up making the right decision. He cant resist a damsel in distress, though, which is what ambitious reporter Babe Bennett is counting on--but love gets in the way. When Deeds tries to give his money away, he finds himself in court defending his sanity.
