Cupid's Boots

In the frantic world of 1925, Ralph Graves plays a man whose heart is far more active than his brain. As a lowly bookkeeper, Ralph is tasked with the rigid precision of numbers, yet his ledger becomes a chaotic canvas of doodles and daydreams centered on the radiant Thelma Hill. His obsession isn't just a distraction; it's a professional liability. After his inevitable firing, Ralph is cast out into a world that has no room for romantic accountants. However, the narrative shifts from a workplace comedy to a domestic rescue mission when Thelma’s family finds themselves in a dire predicament. Ralph must pivot from a failed clerk to an unlikely hero, proving that while he might be terrible with a pen, he is formidable when the stakes involve the woman he loves. It is a story of redemption through clumsy bravery, set against the backdrop of silent-era slapstick and the early creative stirrings of Frank Capra.
