清晨第一缕阳光照进庭院，脑袋谢顶的某市文联赵主任（张寿卿 饰）正随着一张丢了转唱片做体操。这时一个调皮的女青年搞乱了唱片的速度，好好戏耍了赵主任一番。赵主任并不气恼，他从女孩手里接过通知，原来文联邀请了小有名气的讽刺文学作家李少白（白木 饰）来讲座，作家不日到达。与此同时，李作家正躺在火车的长椅上呼呼大睡，他一个人霸占座位，全然不理会其他有困难的乘客。等到了目的地，这位不拘小节的大作家又乱扔果皮，不讲公共道德，弄得赵主任鞍前马后帮他赔不是。 李作家本想和未见过面的女朋友敏英（黄婉苏 饰）有进一步发展，但是敏英对这位华而不实的作家予以了尖刻的批评……

1956 film by Ernst Marischka

Wealthy rancher Bick Benedict and dirt-poor cowboy Jett Rink both woo Leslie Lynnton, a beautiful young woman from Maryland who is new to Texas. She marries Benedict, but she is shocked by the racial bigotry of the White Texans against the local people of Mexican descent. Rink discovers oil on a small plot of land, and while he uses his vast, new wealth to buy all the land surrounding the Benedict ranch, the Benedict's disagreement over prejudice fuels conflict that runs across generations.
