Robert Paige plays a struggling songwriter who poses as a millionaire
cowboy. It's all part of a zany, wacky and nutty scheme to win the hand and
heart of Broadway star Frances Langford. Apparently Paige is a fast
worker, since the film runs only 54 minutes. If one looks closely, one
might deduce that Cowboy in Manhattan has traces of an earlier Universal
musical. That it does; the film is a remake of 1937's You're A Sweetheart,
which starred Alice Faye and George Murphy.
