A brave picture from a time when such political pieces weren't the norm in the US. Really makes this union propaganda stand-out when you see it along with it's contemporary environment. Sure, it's preachy. Sure, it's structure is all over the place. But sure, it was important as well. And that's how I felt watching Native Land (1942). I really fell under the spell of Paul Robeson voice.

This is a film I more appreciated than enjoyed. It's very well shot and addresses some very important issues in a rather clear manner, nut it would work better as a straight doc. The acting is all over the place and the illustrative dramatic stories just feel tedious and uninformative.
