MacDonald's narrative, but simply b
than read books, even such FAM
tastically popular ones as The Egg
and L"
The Universal international ver-
sion Of the earthly omelet, which
opened yesterday at Keiths, IS as
much a conversion as an adapta-
tion. It observes Hollywood's con-.
ventions rather than abiding by the
originals lack Of conventions. The
damage is less than 1t sometimes Is,
however, for there Is something Ia
violably funny about city sophisti-
Gates becoming involved with the
uninhibited denizens Of q barnyard.
And, Of course, Miss Colbert and
MacMurray, with their highly de-
veloped gifts for slapstick, are quite
Ut home In broad farce.
One who read '@The Egg and I"
In shreds and patches, chapter
here and digest there, Is reluctant
to guess how closely 1t follows the
book. Authors Chester Erskine and
Fred Finklehoffe do seem to have
traced the incident In Its general
outline. Apparently, their major re-
visions have had to do with soften
ing up the robust Kettle family and
the introduction of a society siren
who looks like any other "other
woman" in cinema fiction. At that,
the Kettles in the raw may well
have been too raw for moviegoers.
Another character who seems to
have been brushed with more OF
virtue than In the book is the hus-
band. He turns out nicer sort
than readers OF the basic tale may
recall.
The secret Of the first success OF
ssThe Egg and I" was the strictly
personal quality Of its writing. Mrs.
Macdonald had . score to settle
with hens and their produce. Her
way Of slugging 1t out with them on
her typewriter was something to be-
hold.
Miss Colbert and the others In
the screen version are several times
removed from the battle scene. It
shows I'D in the screenplay's quality
of similarity to a number OF other
bucolic farces. In other words, the
personal flavor Is weakened and the
film with 1t.
This does not mean the hilarity
has been drained from the narrative.
Urban audiences can only laugn at
the sight Of any two city types who
foolishly venture into the wilds OF
rural nature, human, animal, fowl
and mineral. 1.-THE Egg and /" ex-
plores the Macdonald venture
rather completely in this respect.
It shows their dealings with the
dilapidated farm house, its leaky
roof. its collapsible kitchen stove,
doors that have fallen of the hinges.
It makes much Of their discovery
that there is a horrible hour on
the clock called am, the fact that
trees do not fall In the direction
desired, that ferocious sounding
watch and hunting dogs are absurd
towards at heart.
These are standard occurrences In
q number Of similar comedies and
not the best parts Of "The Egg
and l."
The latter are to be found In the
experiences Of the Macponalds with
their neighbors.
There are the fabulous Kettles,
Pa, Ma and enough children to
stock an average size county. The
Kettles are primitives. They live IN
chaos which is best reflected In the
fact that Ma Kettle cannot even
remember the names Of her on
spring. The Kettles are funny.
So Is Mr.. Henty the egg man.
