Description
"When a poor little rich girl (Donna Butterworth) is suddenly orphaned, one of her six wacky uncles, all played by Jerry Lewis, will be selected as her guardian. The nine-year-old heiress can visit each one and decide which uncle would be the ideal candidate to take her in. But the selection process won't be easy; only one of the men is truly, genuinely sincere, and all the rest have their eyes on her $30 million inheritance!"--DVD sleeve.
