Adam Pontipee is a rugged backwoodsman who travels to town to find a wife. He quickly marries the spirited Milly and brings her home, only for her to discover he has six unruly younger brothers in desperate need of refinement. Determined to civilize them, Milly teaches the brothers proper manners and courtship. Featuring exuberant dance sequences and classic songs, the film remains a beloved musical.
