    Funny concept with some fun rural gags. Would have faired better with more townspeople involvement and arch.

    A cozy comedy that is sneakily very well made. Once again Chase marries way outside his league. The dog gag and the sheep testicles are classic. Still holds up from back when I saw it in a theater. Might like it more seeing how it does pair nicely with classic screwball comedies
