When an egotistical but dim-witted southern aristocrat (Kenny Delmar) runs into financial trouble, his wife (Una Merkel) decides to help by running for state senate. But when he threatens to mess things up, she resorts to having him kidnapped--for everyone's own good! Delmar originally created his character, Senator Claghorn, for radio program The Fred Allen Show. It also inspired the creation of Looney Tunes cartoon character Foghorn Leghorn!
The first Eagle-Lion film stars Kenny Delmar as Senator Beauregard Claghorn, his "Allen's Alley" resident-character heard on Fred Allen's radio program. Claghorn was a blustery, one-man-Chamber-of-Commerce for all things Southern, who had no tolerence for anything north of the Mason-Dixon line, although he made allowances for South Philly.
The fast talking Senator Beauregard Claghorn, a die-hard Southerner, is forced to sell his land and his beloved mint crop. He foolishly invests in a frozen food truck, not knowing that his overbearing wife Magnolia plans to use the money to aid in her campaign for public office. With hopes of earning the money back, Beauregard accepts a dirty deal from the corrupt political machine. Claghorn joins the Senate race as a third party candidate to keep Magnolia from winning. When the incumbent...
