The way a family-owned business changed, 26 December 2000
Author: jprice-4 from Greenwood,SC

Three brothers from a small town somewhere in South Carolina learn that their father sold the chicken business, because he hated eggs. Then their older brother moves out and he needed the job. Their middle brother got a job at a clothing store.

The McDermott family spilts apart after their father sold the businness, and then reunite together after their father's death.

A little bit good, and A little bit poor.

***1/2.
