Older Movie VHS review: The Egg and I

The Egg and I

Some friends and I were talking about being organized and neat and I remembered what Ma Kettle said about it in this film. She said that when she was first married to Pa, she was neat as a pin. But that as time went on, his mess became too much for her to chase after. So she took on his messy ways.

There's a whole series of Ma and Pa Kettle films that I'll review if and when I get to them. In the mean time, even though it's only on VHS, please see the first time we are introduced to them.

Claudette Colbert marries Fred MacMurray and finds out he has a dream to leave his stable office job and move to the country to raise chickens. We get a view of country life from these city slickers who get way over their heads. Our Mr. Newbie Chicken Farmer starts talking egg production with a pretty blond country gal and makes the Mrs. jealous.

Pull out the VCR and have a watch. VHS copies in North Bend and Myrtle Point
