In the remake of the classic 'Mr Deeds Goes to Town' Longfellow Deeds (Adam Sandler) is a small town boy who is discovered to be the nephew and sole heir to the fortune of Preston Blake, to the tune of $40 billion. Chuck Cedar (Peter Gallagher) brings Deeds to New York City and shows him the ropes of riches, all in an attempt to take control of the dynasty left by Blake. Deeds is overwhelmed by the new life of riches that he finds in New York, but soon befriends reporter Babe Bennett (Winona Ryder), who is originally only interested in the story of Deeds, but falls for him after seeing how kind hearted and genuine he is. Antics ensue in the big city as Cedar tries to dupe Deeds out of Blake's fortune and Blake's butler Emilio (John Turturro) tries to help Deeds adapt to riches. Who will win Blake's fortune, will it be Cedar, or Deeds, or someone else entirely?
