Eggs

On a recent sleepless night (brought on by an over-indulgence of coffee), I watched the movie The Egg & I.  This classic film is based on a memoir that I have floating around my house somewhere and never read.  It follows a couple from the city who move to the country to live out the husband's dream of a farm life.  They start an egg farm and hijinks ensue.

The film is also the first appearance of Ma & Pa Kettle.  I never watched the Beverly Hillbillies, but I really loved Ma Kettle in this film.  She's just so graceless and sweet.  The story itself didn't stick with me as much, but it wasn't bad for a 3am film. 4/10 stars.
