El pequeño fenómeno (1946)
Un ingenuo campesino llamado Benny Miller, de Cucamonga, California, ha estado tomando clases por correspondencia en materia de ventas. Al finalizar el curso, deja a su madre y a su novia Martha para labrarse un porvenir en Los Ángeles. Va en busca de su tío Clarence, contable de una empresa, quien le va a facilitar una entrevista para trabajar en el departamento de ventas. El día de la entrevista, el corrupto gerente de ventas, John Morrison, lo confunde con uno de los modelos para una nueva campaña de ventas y le pide que se quite la ropa. La esposa secreta de Morrison, Hazel Temple, descubre el error y sugiere que Benny sea contratado para evitar que esa equivocación trascienda a la opinión pública...
