The Music Man (1962) Synopsis

Confidence man Harold Hill arrives at staid River City intending to cheat the community with his standard scam of offering to equip and train a boys' marching band, then skip town with the money since he has neither music knowledge nor skill. Things go awry when he falls for a librarian he tries to divert from exposing him, while he inadvertently enriches the town with a love of music.—Kenneth Chisholm
