The Bride Came C. O. D.

An oil baron (Eugene Pallette) stops his daughter, Jane Winfield (Bette Davis), from eloping to Las Vegas with a band leader (Jack Carson) by hiring hard-up charter plane pilot Steve Collins (James Cagney) to "kidnap" her for a tidy "ransom. " Furious at her abduction, Jane attempts to parachute from the plane, forcing Steve to land in the desert near the town of Bonanza -- where, along with Pop, the town's lone inhabitant, Steve works to keep Jane grounded until he can collect his fee.
