The Great Rupert.

Rosalinda Amendola, the daughter of happy but impoverished former acrobats, is in love with the boy next door, aspiring composer Pete Dingle. Pete's parents are wealthy, but his miserly father Frank insists on hiding his money from his investments in the wall of their family home. The situation changes when Joe Mahoney, a vaudeville performer has fallen on hard times and has to leave his best friend and stage companion, Rupert a dancing squirrel, in Frank's town. Rupert decides to clear room in his domicile by throwing Frank's money through a hole so that it floats down.
