The Great Big Doorstep

The Crochet family live in a one room rent shack in the back bayous of 1940’s South Louisiana. They dream of owning their own home after finding a grand plantation front doorstep floating down the Mississippi River. Commodore Crochet, a drainage expert (ditch digger) and father of the family, leads them in the dream while his long suffering wife provides the practical way to their dream house. Based on the novel by Louisiana author E. P. O’Donnell, this Cajun comedy classic takes a hilarious, heart-warming peek into the dreams & schemes of the Crochet family as they get a house to match their “stupendous” Great Big Doorstep.
