This has been a favorite movie of mine since I was a child. My family was a group of dust bowl Okees who migrated to California during the depression, right down Route 66. Movie depicts what it was like before CCC, New Deal, and SSA. No safety nets. You just swim or sank. People need to watch this movie for enlightenment values. Hey, you can also read the book.

This film is a brilliant enactment of the John Steinbeck novel, the incredible story of the Joad family uprooting from Oklahoma - destroyed by the dustbowl of the 1930's, as well as the economic catastrophe of the depression - heading west to the "eden" of California. Henry Fonda's seminal role as Tom Joad is the main character, showing him going from an ex con, buffeted by events trying to keep his family together (along with Ma Joad), and his political enlightenment. The undercurrent is of course the story of America at the time, people faced with amazing ordeals and yet persevering. Many great characters and performances. It's a must see, relevant to this day.
