A wounded Army 2nd Lieutenant Peter Sterling (Donald O'Connor) manages to reach his base from behind enemy lines. Peter is a hero. But, our hero is soon in the psycho ward weaving baskets after he explains to his superior officer (Ray Collins) that a talking mule named Francis really rescued him. Each time Francis shows up with plans for another heroic action, Peter ends up with more time in the bobby hatch & a bigger basket to weave. Peter's problem is that the gabby mule stubbornly refuses to utter a word around anyone else but him. To add to the fun there's a beautiful & mysterious woman (Patricia Medina) who finds Peter irresistible, a five-star general (John McIntire) who wants Peter to give him some straight answers & a loony nurse (Zasu Pitts) who wants Peter to become a permanent resident in her psycho ward. Chill Wills provides both hilarity & wisdom as the voice of Francis & Tony Curtis is briefly seen in one of his very first films.
