The Grapes of Wrath - 1940 - Henry Fonda - Trailer

[TopGearFanForever]

Never imagined Rose of Sharon to be that pretty, she always struck me as slightly harsh and self-centred xD

[959chris]

"Everybody on board...for...Fresno..." LOL

[workingclassbum]

I love these old trailers it makes movies seem like an experience of a lifetime

[LamplightersSerenade]

@workingclassbum It's amazing that you said that.

[clintonearlwalker]

@workingclassbum These movies are an experience of a lifetime. I'm 50 and I've been watching them my whole life. Some of my first memories are going to a drive in movie theater, my dad was a projectionist there, I was a projectionist there years later.

[Wootedness]

I enjoyed seeing this movie. Black and White movies are the best.

[frezdead1]

iv'e never read the book. but the movie really moved me. almost broke my heart. great performance from fonda.

[2099deadpool]

Steinbeck was a pinko commie.

[Quex01]

These times are here again. Only this time people don't have even a land.

[cheddarpuff]

i just finished reading "grapes of wrath". Glad i waited till i was 34 to read this book. the ending didnt' disappoint me, it startled me. what a change in rosasharn's demeanor and affect when i thought she would completely crumble under the circumstances. great book!!!

[PotterPendragon]

@Noinipoim That's how I felt when it ended. Supposedly it's one of the most controversial endings in all literature. I still think the novel's brilliant, and actually don't have a problem with the ending. Obviously if he took so much time to write such an epic, he meant for it to end like that, so I wouldn't lose sleep over it (no pun intended haha). It's still one of my favorite books! :) (I haven't seen the movie either, but I plan to watch it.)

[1javixD]

can any one please tell me where i can the movie ?

[1000jamesm]

aww that's cute

[FatelinkProductions]

To me, Tom Joad is the quintessential American role that personified what is best about American culture. Hope we can have a few more cinematic heroes like him!

[deriter64]

Who else could have played Tom but Henry Fonda?

[RayWilliamJohansen]

i love how the narrators used to talk

[90038jhon]

read the book. 

[jeremy1bullfrog]

the ending of the book was soooo wierd



[MovieClipUploads]

Film is a masterpiece.

[TheBenedictStone]

THE worst film I think I've ever seen. I actually fell asleep. Well... I guess that's what happens when you have a super butch film teacher.

[LaurenHPNo1Fan]

Reading this book now for english.. was my choice! Loving it so far!

[Fuzzypanda110]

it sucked

[rfm2ckt]

John Steinbeck was a genius... and obviously a prophet as well. Hang onto your hats people... it will be worse than this soon!

[MrZazzer]

i cant find the movie anywhere

[robbiez777]

That's not how I imagined Ma Joad. Everyone else looks pretty close.

[matrat57]

@robbiez777 I agree

[coltontd]

this is a good movie my OK hist and Gov teacher made our class watch it

[phalanx237]

They don't make classics like this anymore. :(

[lnat2000]

The audiobook is fantastically read. I highly suggest it to pass the miles!

[lnat2000]

The audiobook is fantastically read. I highly suggest it!

[shushi1234]

i just finished reading the book yesterday

[mrsjbs1980]

People flocked to the movie to see the last page from the book! Rose breast feeds old man that is starving! The movie didn't show it!

[1LightningBolt]

Sorry excuse for a book and movie i say

[guitarobsessed85]

@1LightningBolt It is a great depiction of the great depression and the people who lived in the period of history. I don't see what you wouldn't like about it.

[1LightningBolt]

@guitarobsessed85 its my opinion

[somejackball]

Muley's an awesome actor as well

[AlcinoustheXIIth]

It IS a really good book, but I was forced to read it for school, which ruined everything.

[cotmullion]

@AlcinoustheXIIth

I know EXACTLY what you mean.

[mrajeam14]

I'm reading the book as a school assignment, and as I was reading the book, I always pictured Casey to be an african american. I don't know why. I had no trouble picturing all the other charaters as white people. I knew he was supposed to be white, but I never could picture him that way. It also seems to me that the actress playing Rosasharn looks a bit like Lindsey Lohan at 1:54. Tell me if anyone else had the same picture for Casey as I did or if you think Rosasharn looks like Lindsey Lohan.

[dollthatoverdoesit]

@mrajeam14 my mum did, but i didn't

[mrajeam14]

@dollthatoverdoesit For the Lindsey Lohan thing or Casey thing?

[Kalibure1]

Awesome movie!!!

[ShotOneAKCTK]

i live in the same city this book has as the background or back drop....you know what i mean

[tietie007]

Wonderful !

[blondybash321]

I'm reading this right now.. fml

[meikazama]

my teacher ordered me to read this book and analyze about characters,plot ,setting and theme.But how i can analyze? Ha ha ..i just read it only a half of chapter 4.

[shialover777]

i just read the book and it was so good but when i pictured Tom and Al i thought they'd be younger. I pictured Tom as James dean :)

[cosmonauta2001]

One of the best movie ever made and a pungent statement against greed, social exploration and capitalist dehumanization.

[annnieeex3]

i had to read this book for english...

i personally thought it was gonna suck but it was really good!! :)

[kdixon7783c]

Tom Joad is a hero!

[electrasong]

@kdixon7783c - yes.... somehow I just watched this film for the first time and it shocks me how much the world has not changed and everyone and everything is treated as an 'idle asset' to be used by business to make money. Nothing has changed in our great 'western culture', we still need slaves to pick our peaches.

[ibedodasexy]

sorry but this is such a boring book and movie, i wanted to punch myself in the face. but i have to admit, there are somee interesting parts in the book.

[adamson001]

i read the book yesterday , really awesome

[ribena1983]

what is the name of the music piece played while they are annoucing cast, Henry Fonda, Jane Darwell etc?

[grabit1]

@strawberrybell101

John Steinbeck liked the movie almost better than his own book. He was a screenwriter, too, so he understood the difference between art forms.

[killerbenji]

I say the film lived up to its name and the apparent hype,and then some.
