Contrived comedy-western with Buddy Ebsen playing matchmaker to Keir Dullea and Lois Nettleton in Montana. Ebsen is fine if subdued in his role as the reluctant caretaker of the son of a dead friend. Dullea, however, is out of his element here as a rambunctious cowpoke: he is loud, annoying, never funny and has zero chemistry with the mail order bride Nettleton, even after they are supposed to fall in love. Beaver Cleaver's kid brother is the cute kid.
