City Slickers II: The Legend of Curly's Gold is the 1994 follow up to the 1991 hit comedy City Slickers. It follows Mitch (Billy Crystal) on his 40th birthday as he discovers a treasure map that leads to "Curly's gold." Jack Palance follows up his Oscar-winning turn as Curly by playing his twin brother Duke.
City Slickers 2 Plot
The film begins one year after the start of the first film, on Mitch's 40th birthday. Mitch finds a treasure map secreted in the hat of Curly, the cowboy who died in the first movie. The map sets him off on adventure with his friend Phil (Daniel Stern) and his brother Glen (Jon Lovitz). On their path to find the gold, they are set upon by robbers, then rescued by someone who looks exactly like the dead Curly, but who turns out to be Curly's long lost twin brother Duke (Jack Palance). The four band together to find the treasure, encountering humorous accidents along the way. A twist at the end brings back several familiar faces from the first film.
