Highway 66

Rating: 8/10 (28 June 2001)

The Grapes of Wrath violates the majority ideology with the unhappy ending. The right of being a criminal. No hope in the American dream. No romantic interest. The crude look at law and businessmen. Poor working class, the struggle for a utopia. The anarchy of capitalism. Communism, union, moving out west, socialistic worlds are all discussed in the film. In the end, no one is to blame for the issues of authority, land, jobs, etc. In the end, the working class (under class) are seen as the people. We are the people! It is a proud ending but far from a Hollywood happy ending.
