One of the most profound novels of the 20th century, John Steinbeck's passionate depiction of the plight of the Depression-era Midwestern farmer was adapted by director John Ford into an equally significant cinematic social commentary. Henry Fonda stars as the eldest son of the Joads, a poor family from the Dust Bowl of Oklahoma, who struggle to maintain their dignity while on a grueling trek to a possible better life in California. Co-stars Oscar-winner Jane Darwell, John Carradine, Charley Grapewin. 129 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English. Region Free
