Seven Chances

A young lawyer must wed by his 27th birthday to get a $7-million dollar inheritance, but he’s more interested in marrying the woman he’s been in love with for years than in getting the money., When a lawyer discovers that he can inherit $7 million if he marries by 7:00 PM and his girlfriend turns him down when he makes a mess of the proposal, he puts an ad in the paper for someone to marry him so that he can become rich. There are literally thousands of women who respond to the ad, enabling Keaton to become part of one of the best silent chase scenes done. The boulder scene was added later to heighten audience enjoyment.
