For many, the first encounter with Snowbound is to establish Phil Goldstone as a true visionary of the 1927s.
Assuming he is marrying a wealthy girl; Peter Foley passes a fraudulent check and to save him from jail, Julia Barry poses as his wife. Peter is actually in love with Alice Blake, and he encounters complications with Bull, a motorcycle cop who is actually engaged to Julia. Alice and a false friend add to the mix-up; and through various chases and complications they are all snowbound together in a mountain lodge. After numerous attempts to catch or elude one another, a happy ending prevails for all.
