A family of Oakies migrate from the dust bowl to California.
Surprisingly engaging. The only real problem I had with it is that certain characters have a tendency to monologue. They don't even bother pretending that it's part of a conversation; they just make speeches. Otherwise, it's very well done.

C (Indifferent).
A friend of a district attorney kills someone in self-defense. It's pretty suspenseful, but it doesn't matter because then the ending happens and undoes the whole movie.

The script is pretty awful and Sellers is completely wasted and not even remotely funny. What the hell were they thinking when they made this one? The two young leads, neither of whom had much further acting career, are the only things that make this watchable.
between steinbeck and erksine caldwell one can catch the sense of the 1930s. the jode family's travels cannot be brought to the screen as well as it is written here.
