Movie review for the day

Rico says the ladyfriend likes old b&w movies, so we watched Our Vines Have Tender Grapes with Edward G. Robinson and Margaret O'Brien:

A Norwegian farmer, Martinius Jacobson, played by Edward G. Robinson, lovingly raises his daughter, Selma, in rural World War Two-era Benson Junction, Wisconsin. Selma and a neighbor boy, Arnold, aged seven and five, pal around together between their two farms. Selma has a newborn calf that her father gave to her, which she named 'Elizabeth'. Nels is the editor of the Fuller Junction Spectator, but the kids just call him 'editor'. Viola is the new school teacher from the big city. While Nels wants to marry Viola, Viola does not want to live in a small, quiet, nothing-happening town. The biggest news is that Faraassen has built a new barn. (Spoiler alert: the barn burns down, but the town offers up replacement livestock.)
