synopsis
When the cops in a lily-white resort town mistake a wealthy black author for a burglar, the local police chief recruits a drifter to help with the cover-up. This attempted satire of race relations ultimately becomes a standard odd couple comedy contrasting uptight, upper-class black Andrew and poor white Amos.
