Wonderfully offbeat film!

Overrated and overhyped

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

A night out on the town for a working class couple has them paired up with two characters of ill repute, all because of marked money found in the garbage. For garbage man Fred Martin (as Eddie Mason, not Martin as credited), dumping restaurant garbage ends on an unsuspected find, but the $50,000 he finds is marked, alerting restaurant workers and the crooked couple (William Wright and Ann Savage) who lost the dough in the first place. Martin's girl (Jeff Donnell) has no idea that a beautiful gown and a night filled with champagne and dancing is because of the luck of "finders keepers, losers weepers" and the friendly couple who offer to buy them a drink are simply well dressed crooks.This is a neat little B comedy with crime elements and is pure entertainment. Some great character cameos pop up along the way including a very young Shelley Winters as Donnell's pal, Adele Jergens as a sexy model, Jack Norton as a pesky drunk and veteran comedy short player Dorothy Vaughan as a venom filled old lady. It's a nice chance to see Donnell in a rare lead, especially for those who simply just know her as Lila Quartermain's housekeeper.
