This musical about a family and its prize-winning hog originated as a 1933 Will Rogers movie, was remade in 1945, then again in 1962 starring Ann-Margret.

Except for the talented Scott Wise (Guys and Dolls), the State Fair cast doesn't deserve mention, except as cautionary examples of overacting and plastic surgery. (TC) D
