Summary

Be happy and go wacky! This classic fairytale gets a comical workover from comedy legends Abbott and Costello. Lou plays Jack while former heavyweight boxer Buddy Baer plays the giant who lives in the sky. Meanwhile, renowned voice artist Mel Blanc (Bugs Bunny) lends his familiar sound to various animals in the story. There's even a talking harp! This is one film that will make you think twice the next time someone offers you some magic beans...
