Product Information
John Ford's memorable screen version of John Steinbeck's epic novel of the Great Depression--often regarded as the director's best film--stars Henry Fonda as Tom Joad. After having served a brief prison sentence for manslaughter, Joad arrives at his family's Oklahoma farm only to find it abandoned. Muley (John Qualen), a neighbor now nearly mad with grief, tells Tom of the drought that has transformed the farmland of Oklahoma into a desert and of the preying land agents who have plowed under the shacks of the sharecroppers. Joined by former hellfire preacher Casy (John Carradine), Tom finds his extended family, including Pa (Charles Grapewin) and his indomitable Ma (Jane Darwell), packing their ramshackle truck to seek work in the fields of California. As the family treks across the country, their dissolution begins with the deaths of Tom's grandparents at close intervals. When they arrive in California, the Joads find only an abundance of poverty-stricken migrants like themselves and little in the way of potential work. Yet, ever resilient, they maintain their dignity, hoping for the best. Among the talented cast, Fonda does perhaps the best work of his career, as does Qualen in the film's most haunting sequence. Director of photography Gregg Toland captures the suffering and the weathered, luminous nobility of the Joads and the other uprooted, drifting families, creating striking images equal to the best work of Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans. In a stirring film that stands as a microcosm of the depression experience of millions, Ford gives poverty a human face in a way that was rare then and even rarer in the decades to follow as Hollywood films with a sense of class consciousness dwindled like a species nearing extinction.Product Identifiers

Realistic and scenes were real.
It is a film that depicts the era of the depression. John Ford did an excellent direction of this movie. Plenty of background what people had to go through to search for a better life.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

History on Route 66
The Grapes of Wrath is the story of a typical dust-bowl era farm family from Oklahoma. They were displaced by the dust-bowl and corporate greed. They traveled historical route 66 to California in search of better jobs and prosperity. What they found was more corporate greed and meager wages. After many tragic losses, they remained optimistic and roamed California following low paying jobs.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Great pandemic movie
This movie was actually made produced and filmed in 1940 the book came out in 1939 and was a complete sell-out. It shows the struggle of an Oklahoma family Crossing to California to try to find work and to become victims of the new CD orange drawers at the time. Hard time but they managed to surviveBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
