Country Gentlemen is a 1936 American comedy film directed by Ralph Staub for Republic Pictures with the comedy duo of Olsen and Johnson.
Two swindlers, their Gracie Allen type secretary and her Great Dane named Fluffy are on the run and end up in the small town of Chesterville. Though Ole wishes to give up the dishonest life and settle in the small town with hotel owner Louise and her son, they sense the smell of money when a Veteran's Home is built in the town and they can swindle the ex-soldiers of their bonuses. Things expand with a scheme in selling shares in an oil exploration project.
