The Egg and I (1947)
Directed by Chester Erskine
Overview
World War II veteran Bob MacDonald surprises his new wife, Betty, by quitting his city job and moving them to a dilapidated farm in the country. While Betty gamely struggles with managing the crumbling house and holding off nosy neighbors and a recalcitrant pig, Bob makes plans for crops and livestock. The couple’s bliss is shaken by a visit from a beautiful farm owner, who seems to want more from Bob than just managing her property.
