“Jerry is seven times nuttier in seven gems of character portrayal!”

ComedyCrime

A young heiress must choose between six uncles, one of which is up to no good and out to harm the girl's beloved bodyguard who practically raised her.

VIBE

A delightfully silly and over-the-top romp. Expect broad humor, eccentric characters, and a whirlwind of comedic chaos as fortunes and affections are tossed about with gleeful abandon.
