Gregory Peck as Henry Adams, Ronald Squire as Oliver Montpelier, and Jane Griffiths as Portia Lansdowne are among those who get caught up in a wacky wager involving an American sailor stranded penniless in Britain and two wealthy brothers who issue him a one million pound banknote. As the note's existence is enough to grant its holder credit and privileges, Adams navigates the complexities of his new status, befriending Portia Lansdowne while facing challenges from others who seek to exploit his newfound wealth.
