Summary |
On the run, New York con man Teddy heads to the Australian outback, where he's waylaid by a sultry, sex starved hitchhiker. One morning he awakes to discover he has married her and is now trapped in an off-the-map town ruled with a beer-soaked fist by her tyrant father. Stuck in this crazy remote town, where the inhabitants revere Rodgers and Hammerstein, Teddy frantically plots his escape |
