Texas greenhorn Joe Buck arrives in New York for the first time. Preening himself as a real ‘hustler’ , he finds that he is the one getting ‘hustled’ until he teams up with a down–and–out but resilient outcast named Ratso Rizzo.
The initial ‘country cousin meets city cousin’ relationship deepens. In their efforts to bilk a hostile world rebuffing them at every turn, this unlikely pair progress from partners in shady business to comrades. Each has found his first real friend.
