I seriously love this movie.
Jane Osgood (Day), a widowed mother of two living in a small New England town, raises and sells lobsters for a living. When the Eastern and Portland Railroad fails to deliver her lobsters on time, as she paid them to do, the result is a load of dead lobsters. She and her friend George Denham (Lemmon), also her lawyer, begin to fight the big corporation, which is run by Scrooge-like Harry Foster Malone (Kovacs).
It's a classic David-vs-Goliath story. With romance and small town charm.
This is on my "to-buy" list. It's definitely worth owning! Best marriage proposal scene ever!
