Oppressive factory farm system dismantled by acknowledgement and liberation of female sexuality.

I liked the Bing Crosby & Frank Sinatra parts. The part with Porky shitty eggs was pretty disturbing though.

Perhaps this is a satire -- carefully designed to go right over the kids' heads, of course -- of how popular musicians -- for centuries -- have been total ladykillers. It's still not much fun to watch even if you're a big enough fan of history and old movies to instantly recognize the singers being parodied. One day either Criticker will become smart enough not to recommend baloney like this to me anymore, or I'll become smart enough to not use Criticker

Bing battles Franky for the soul of the American homefront. Yet they're chickens, and Porky lays some eggs. Anything for Uncle Sam.
