About this release
Sir Guy Grand, ricchissimo industriale inglese, non avendo discendenti diretti adotta Archibald, un giovane vagabondo incontrato casualmente. Ben presto però Sir Guy si preoccupa essenzialmente di dimostrare al figlioccio il potere di corruzione del denaro. Il tutto attraverso esempi concreti: falsifica un’asta pubblica, riduce a una rissa la tradizionale sfida di canottaggio tra Oxford e Cambridge e sottopone a una serie di scherzi feroci i partecipanti a una crociera. Sarà in grado Archibald di capire la lezione?
