Henry Fonda delights!

Rating: 8/10 (12 December 2014)

I really enjoyed this film, from the beginning monologue to the end, it was a great film. It had elements of despair and used flashbacks as a way to get the story told. This film is an adaptation of a previously written novel, and that usually means that the film will not be a decent view. However, that is not the case. Henry Fonda is perfectly cast as Tom, and does a great job at making the viewer believe the plight that one would have when having to move off of their land due to the dust bowls. My favorite part about this film is the theme of hope that ultimately comes from the end of the film, in that man can overcome anything.
