Two Americans stranded in Mexico with an elephant try to sell their animal to a traveling carnival. Low-budget comedy with songs and a misleading title.
Practical Effects
Real elephant somehow steals every scene.
Acting
El Brendel's Swedish accent committed fully to the bit.
Director
Harold Young
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of a weird 1940s trend of 'south of the border' comedies where Mexico served as exotic chaos backdrop for white protagonists.
Harold Young also directed The Mummy's Tomb — this was his comedown. The elephant had no credited name, which feels criminal.
