Handlung
Als in der rauen Grenzstadt Bottleneck wieder einmal der Sheriff das Zeitliche segnet, wird Tom Destry in die Stadt gerufen. Der Sohn eines berüchtigten Revolverhelden, ist allerdings alles andere als der knallharte Arm des Gesetzes den alle erwartet haben. Statt Schlägereien anzufangen, hilft er Damen aus der Kutsche, statt Whiskey trinkt er Milch und statt mit dem Schiesseisen pariert er die Angriffe seiner Gegner lieber mit seinem schnellen Mundwerk und seinem zielsicheren Verstand. Auf diesem Wege klärt der gewitzte Destry nicht nur den Mord an seinem Vorgänger auf, er gewinnt auch das Herz der schönen Barsängerin Frenchy .
