IMDb
(DVD, VCI Entertainment)

Gene Wilder is an illiterate Irishman who picks up horse dung off the streets and sells it for fertilizer. One day he is almost run over by a sports car driven by reckless college students. Margot Kidder is the American student who returns to apologize, leading to their ill-advised romance. For some reason she invites him to a formal dance with her stuffy intellectual friends which predictably ends in a brawl. She finally leaves him for good, leaving poor old Quackser to wonder what he is going to do with his life. Luckily his cousin in the Bronx comes through with a solution.
