About
When high school sweethearts Homer and Elsie are married, Elsie's ex-boyfriend - movie actor Buddy Ebsen - sends her a peculiar wedding gift, an alligator named Albert whom she adores.
Eventually, a jealous Homer gives Elsie an ultimatum: "Me or the alligator!" After giving it some thought, Elsie concludes there is only one thing to do: carry Albert home.
Based on a family legend, Carrying Albert Home is a road story, a portrait of Depression-era America, a rollicking adventure, and an unusual tale of that marvelous emotion we inadequately call love.
