Not much to say about the film aside from it's a classic adaption of a classic literary work. The blu-ray comes highly recommended! The B&W 4:3 image is a great visual presentation of a caring restoration. No crazy post work like digital noise reduction or artificial sharpening, just a good crisp presentation of the film. The mono audio track is presented in lossless DTS-HD MA, and while of course it doesn't match up to surround sound films of recent years, it's a rather solid mono track for the era and has been preserved nicely here. Definitely worth a pickup or upgrade from DVD, and at a great price from BB!

A Great American Story

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
It’s a harsh stark story that is very well-told and acted that depicted the unusually bleak times of the “Great Depression” of the 1930’s in America. It’s westward-ho on US Route 66 (which is still in existence today) to the promised “green” land of California and the wretched living conditions in the labor/farm camps. This story needs to be viewed again to remind us of our “sometimes stark heritage” and the hard-truth of the Great Depression.

I remember watching this in school for history class. I'd remembered it for being a great film with great acting by Henry Fonda. A period piece with a purpose for storytelling in the highest regards! It was long overdue for being added to my movie collection and should be watched by all that's never seen it before.

In the troubling times of the Great Depression the Joad family, accompanied by their friend Reverend Jim, migrate from Oklahoma to California in the hopes of finding work in a vineyard and improving their financial condition. But the road is long and rough, and when they reach their destination things aren't quite what they expected.

This is one of Henry Fonda’s finest roles. In summary it us about the trials and tribulations if the people leaving the midwest known as the dust bowl after the great drought in the 1930’s.

The B&W pictures quality was outstanding. I had trouble with the disc not being able to access the menu or the fast forward buttons. I exchanged for 2nd disc -same problems. I have a Sony Blu-ray player and it was fully updated. Kept the second disc, I suspect it is a mismatch for my equipment. The movie was fantastic quality for a 1940's B&W movie, no streaks, flutters or missing segments. I took off one star for disc not working. It worked fine if I just started the movie and watched in one sitting.

Super performances from all the cast, especially Henry Fonda. Several Academy Awards in a year that had many great films competing for top film. Jane Darwell wins Best Supporting Actress as the mom. One of my all-time favorite movies. John Ford wins Best Director.

The image quality is much improved on the BLU-RAY over an earlier DVD I have. Some of the darker scenes have less grain and artifacts. As for the movie itself, this is one of Henry Fonda's best roles. Actually all the characters are very memorable in this John Ford film.

The Grapes of Wrath looks absolutely stunning on Blu-ray. And it's routinely being sold at an inexpensive price. Henry Fonda's acting is amazing in this movie and is a must-buy!

As the decades go by, the depression becomes more and more just a chapter in history books. Thankfully, we have movies like The Grapes of Wrath, to remind us what many families faced during that time.

A Favorite of Mine

This has always been one of my favorite movies. I've watched my old vhs copy several times. I happened to come across a blu ray copy in a local Best Buy store and purchased it. While the blu ray version has much better quality than my old vhs copy there are a few minor flaws in the transfer probably due to the age of the movie itself. All in all, very pleased to have a much nicer copy of this movie.

Director John Ford's timeless classic is as heartfelt and passionate today as when it was filmed. This blu-ray only hightens and deepens this vision of the poor and oppressed in the Depression years.
