Directed by John Ford, based on the Pulitzer Prize winning novel by John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath (1940) ranks amongst the greatest American films ever made. Focusing on poor migrant workers from Oklahoma heading west to California during the Great Depression, the moving story still resounds with truth today. The cinematography alone makes The Grapes of Wrath a work of Art, but everything else about it works as well forming a truly magnificent achievement, and a landmark in cinema. The cast is wonderful, including Henry Fonda as Tom Joad, Jane Darwell and John Carradine.
