"Strictly Fresh Yeggs" is a stupid film with many stupid and unbelievable situations...that somehow made me laugh despite this!
When the story begins, an old prune is about to have her equally prudish friends come over for a meeting trying to get the government to re-institute prohibition (it had just ended a few months before this film was made). At the same time, her husband is trying to sneak out to go carousing and drinking with his friends. To sneak out, he tunnels! And, in the tunnel, he finds a barrel of bourbon....and what happens next is utterly ridiculous and results in the made making spiked jello shots for this meeting! A lot more happens...just see it for yourself.
So many bits in this film make no sense if you think about them....not just the bourbon but the nitro and many other gags. BUT, and this is the important part, they do make you laugh and the film, despite its many problems, is worth seeing. Clever and stupid!
