Cow

China

Broadly played farce/drama set during the Japanese invasion in the 1930's. A village has in its possession an over-sized (called foreign) cow which is its treasure...after the army goes through the only things left alive are the cow and its reluctant caretaker. The rest of the film consists of the caretaker trying to stay alive whilst constantly being undermined by the cow.

I guess this was meant to be comedic...but in a Mack Sennett sort of way. A hundred years ago I might have found it funny. Today...sorry...

Film was great looking but idiotic.
