The Grapes of Wrath
Legendary director John Ford delivered a heartbreaking film with the adaptation of the classic novel by John Steinbeck. During the Great Depression, an impoverished family is forced out of their land and embark on a arduous journey to the promised land, California where they face new problems. Ford along with his legendary cast and crew captured the Great Depression that the images still shocks. The times might have changed but the human condition and struggle continues around the world more than ever before. Henry Fonda and Jane Darwell delivered towering performances as the leads while Gregg Toland captured the images worthy of Dorthea Lange. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
