May as well be a true story. A must for people interested in American history.

Those of us with families that go back to Oklahoma dust bowl days know that while this actual story may never have happened, it is a true story none the less. Our ancestors were called "Okies"-and were treated very closely to how blacks were/are treated and namecalled. We listen to our parents and grandparents and look at old pictures and just feel this movie. It deserves a ten because of how realistic and accurate a depiction it is, as well as the message it gets out. It's always fun to watch movies depicted historically accurate. Doesn't it stir up something instinctively Déjà vu in you even though you may have never been there? And it is amazing how similar human nature is even today as it was then.
