Quick Millions is a 1939 American comedy film co-written by Buster Keaton, one of the series of seventeen Jones Family films beginning with Every Saturday Night (1936) and ending with On Their Own (1940). Spring Byington appeared in all seventeen; Jed Prouty in all but the last one. In this entry the Joneses are convinced they've bought the Grand Canyon. This is one of the two Jones Family films with gags and a story line provided by Keaton, briefly moonlighting from MGM for his old friend Malcolm St. Clair, the director of this film.[1]
