In this version of Mark Twain's story, Huckleberry Finn (Eddie Hodges) escapes from his brutal alcoholic father, Pap (Neville Brand), and joins runaway slave Jim (Archie Moore) on a rafting trip down the Mississippi River. Along the way, they meet con-men "King" and "Duke" (Tony Randall and Mickey Shaughnessy) who find work on a riverboat and join the circus–neither the riverboat nor the circus were in Twain's book. Reluctantly, Huckleberry and Jim are drawn into the schemes of "King" and "Duke." 1 User Review
