"Rich folk come up an' they die, an' their kids ain't no good an' they die out. But we keep acoming, Pa, cus' we're the people that live." Spare me. Grapes of Wrath is loaded with this kind of good ole homespun wisdom. It's annoying and it's insulting. Maybe this kind of dialogue could work on the printed page, in the context of a larger work, but spoken by actors on the screen it's just awful.

Hollywood's conservative nature meant that we couldn't see a more faithful version of the novel. But the adaptation still makes a classic film out of a Great American novel. First, the production of the picture is fantastic, as the oppressive & dystopian class warfare is beautifully built. It comes across as The Hunger Games minus the sci-fi. But second, the repeated themes of Christian imagery provide a great sermon on human worth and shared purpose. Highly recommended.

Politically-tinged films had existed before this, but Grapes of Wrath was really the earliest I've seen that made serious attempts to explore the wider and broader societal mechanisms affect people's lives. Moving and thought-provoking, well-written, well-acted and with some beautiful landscape photography of rural Americana: Grapes of Wrath is an all-around masterpiece, and an important piece of the film canon. (Though perhaps a bit on the slow side)

One of the best American films of the 1940s, John Ford's The Grapes of Wrath is many things - an almost Biblical American myth of westward expansion, an epic road journey about family and survival, and a plea for compassion and social justice.

Beautifully shot and engaging. Still it's simplistic from the romanticised view of these characters, to how it doesn't show them labouring away (it all feels glossed over, very Hollywood), to the irritating homespun wisdom (the final speech is nauseating). It's kind of silly too with its presentation of authority being cartoonishly over the top whilst its praise of the Government is absurd. I can't honestly call it bad, but I'm certainly not impressed. I'd very much like to read the novel.

Classic John Ford: the group dynamic set against the backdrop of American mythology. It's heartbreaking stuff, unfettered by the hokey elements that can bog down some of Ford's pictures (at least until the end). Henry Fonda is at the height of his powers, and Toland's lighting and compositions are rich.

I so wanted to give this historically important and socially relevant film a "100", but I just can't. Ford's direction is mediocre at best and frequently distracts the viewer from the excellent story and acting. Still, once one accepts that scenes will be oddly edited, lit, and framed, this is a film that everyone should see. You owe it to your country to know what life could be like if all social safety nets were removed.

Why do people like this movie so much? The message of the book barely shines through. The characters are horribly underdeveloped - for christ's sake, the development and transformation of the Joad family was one of the most important aspects of the novel. The story feels pointless and doesn't do any justice in its depiction of the Joads' hardships. Boring and maybe the most overrated film ever made.

Really well done film with fantastic acting that really sets the mood of the depression.

Most of the time I have to give tons of concessions to Golden-era Hollywood productions for the lack of modern sensibilities but The Grapes of Wrath is no such film. The long cut-less takes, lack of score, and stage-like acting give weight to everything happening in this film because it forces the viewer to confront what is on-screen without any distractions. Sure, it may never truly live up the novel so many of us had to read as ninth-graders but it about as good an adaptation as there is.

A brilliant portrayal of the devastation of the dustbowl in the midst of the Great Depression and the absence of any social safety net. The black and white photography of the day is the perfect element to portray the desperation of the people and times. As the new arrivals in California try to get a footing, respond to the possibility of collective action through unionizing to improve their situation, the big growers and land owners use the police to enforce their privileged position.

One of Ford's greatest achievements (happily missing one of his usual slapstick interludes) tells Steinback's gripping heartbreaker with the perfect balance of emotion and pragmatism, giving Fonda one of the most interesting variations on his "nobleman" persona. Manages a clear-eyed depiction of the Joads' struggles without wallowing in suffering-porn, even providing some nice relief courtesy of cameos from fellow good-hearted citizens. Final speech (while unlikely) is a powerful barnstormer.

American capitalism at some of its ugliest - Zanuck sent a PI to check out whether Steinbeck was exaggerating in his book, only to hear that conditions were actually worse. Some scenes in this movie have that weird Hollywood "uncanny valley" feel, while others are just heartbreakingly spooky, especially the hungry kids swarming the Joads in the tent city.

Wherever there's a cop beatin' up a guy, I'll be there. I'll be in the way guys yell when they're mad. I'll be in the way kids laugh when they're hungry and they know supper's ready, and when the people are eatin' the stuff they raise and livin' in the houses they build - I'll be there, too."

Ford seemed like the ideal director for a film adaptation of Steinbeck's polemic against poverty, and even if the novel is watered down in its translation to the big screen, he starkly evokes the time period populated by salt-of-the-earth characters who desperately struggle to maintain a mere sustenance existence against the odds. Tolland's work is exemplary, capturing the desolate dustbowl setting marked by delapidated dwellings and arid fields in stunning chiaroscuro to ghostly effect.

You can sense a change in the wind with John Ford's The Grapes of Wrath (1940). Both on a social level and from a film making angle. There is a lot more pessimism before we reach any kind of glimmer of light, and the tone of performances are deeper then what one would find in a typical poverty drama of the 30s. Incredible portrayals from all involved. The roots in reality is the film's undeniable strength, and the reason why this is a enduring classic of social Americana.

Steinbeck's overwhelming sadness and anger are conveyed beautifully through Toland's photography, and it has profoundly affecting moments. Unfortunately I was really distracted by the bad accents, and the original plot, which is already pretty wonky, is stretched and poked around much to the film's detriment. Grapewin gives the only authentic performance, and Carradine hams it up like he's in a B-movie. You can't ruin this story (hence my score), but it seems like somebody was trying.

Starts out with a few oddly silly moments , but after a while it settles down into a serious drama about the hardships of the Joad family as they're forced out of their home in Oklahoma and migrate west to find work. Henry Fonda and Jane Darwell steal the show, and some of the best scenes in the movie are just the two of them talking. It's a bittersweet film, and its themes are just as relevant now as they were when it came out over 70 years ago.

Some of it is a bit hokey and weathered by age, and the dialogue doesn't translate extremely well to the screen, but the performances - especially those by Carradine and Fonda - are fantastic and sell the words with surprising believability. There was never an actor more likeable than Henry Fonda (though Jimmy Stewart poses a challenge), and he is key in getting across the message without making the movie seem like manipulative schlock. It's a honest, heartfelt message picture.

Ford's adaptation looks beautiful, but I find it difficult to separate from Steinbeck's novel. The film lacks dramatic weight; it's barely a sketch of the plot, the themes, the characters. We don't take enough time to really focus on the trial of the journey, the grief, the emotional strain, the dangers of starvation; the richness and the detail is sorely lacking here. I see a lot of reviews commenting on how bleak this is... peeps, please. Read the novel. You're in for a rough ride.

2. Blatant communist propaganda but boy is the film good. Even the sheer polit-agitation by Henry Fonda's character via his monologue at the end works great and hits hard. Fonda was a powerhouse, truly. The whole film is memorable and all the members of the family are before my eyes when I think of it - which speaks highly of the casting, acting, screenplay and direction. Casy the preacher, Ma Joad, the rest. "A man lives, sorta, well, in jerks. With a woman, it's all in one flow like a stream"

i've never seen what all the fuss about steinbeck was about. as for this movie, fonda is good, and ford's done better. there were some pretty great scenes, but a lot of stuff in between that was lukewarm.

It's difficult for a movie with a political and social message to not crumble into demagogy, but "Grapes of Wrath" certainly gets away from that trap. A heart-wrenching movie with great acting and perfect cinematography.

I couldn't get through the book in high school, and I didn't much enjoy the movie now. It's one of those movies that's considered great only because of its attempt to capture an important chapter of American history, not because it's good as a film.

John Ford, who I'd always viewed as a somewhat conservative American director, makes the case for some "progressive" socialist thinking... As such, the point of this movie should be as poignant for Americans these years, as it was in the aftermath of The Great Depression.

Not that it's a bad movie, has incredible scenes and phrases, but it is too sentimental and historically questionable. Still many people say the book is much better, I dont know.

Not a faithful adaptation, but Ford makes his own movie out of the story, and it's a good one.
