Review Summary and Plot Commentary about It's A Wonderful World
A private detective, on his way to jail for harboring an accused criminal, escapes and makes his way to prove his client is innocent of murder. He comes across a poet in the woods and has to drag her along with him to keep her from revealing his position. Essentially a love/hate relationship, the couple manage to elude the incompetent police and reach their goals.
