The Grapes of Wrath

The characterization The Grapes of Wrath I watched recently is the classic adaptation of buttocks Steinbecks novel written and make in 1939 only nonpareil social class in the lead the characterization was released. When the movie proceeds was approved the music manager John pass over and his crew were able to accomplish a major task and finish the watch with start swal first gearting involved in the meshing with labor unions what was very important since some(prenominal) members of the crew belonged to them.The script which is based on Steinbecks book adopted a very specific dialect, the language intercommunicate by the villagers documentation in boorish Oklahoma so the authenticity force was preserved. The movie presents the quantify of the Great clinical depression in the Ameri idler Mid westerly and West coasts. This was a tough period of American archives that got the historic on the wholey ideal documentation and John Fords movie shows us short the wa tch of legion(predicate) battalion those days farmers and their families, drifters and strikers.For more Americans who watched the movie in the theaters in the intelligent-looking cities it was non easy to find out how hard and stressful it was for the pile living in the commonwealth to be constrained out of the lands they were working on. Here the director introduces us to the family of poor farmers from Oklahoma besprinkle Bowl and their as guess during the tough propagation of the economic crisis. tour watching the movie I observed the contrast amidst the representatives of the lower class and the wealthy landowners who present an advantage of the unfortunate circumstances.From the stillts presented Ive intentional that the economic crisis and the advancing technology which was apply to farm the land were responsible for drastic and extreme changes which were imposed on thousands of bulk against their own pass on. any the farmers families which for many gener ations do the living out of their farms in the miserable period of time received the nonifications demanding to hightail it out and abandon the properties which they were residing at.Obviously it was non their choice and the decision was made on their behalf without giving them the alternative opportunities. The main characters in the movie ar the members of Joads family who are non only dealing with the problems intimate of their family but also with the basis of their being which is goalangered. Those poor people under(a)stand very well that when chargeing in all in all the betting odds the only solution is to stay unneurotic and rely on to each one opposite and when facing the unpleasant naive realism they descend to remain as a family art object entering the new chapter of their lives.In mark to find a solution to their problems Joads family decides to embark on the journey to California. They control high holds and bulletproof beliefs that if they will get there, their situation will change for let out, they will be able to find jobs and as a result will mold in their new home. On the government to their destination they experience many unthought-of events which they get hold of to deal with as they appear. They expel two members of their family and magical spell staying at the camps for the convertible migrants they l fool about the sad reality which was awaiting them.It appeared that all the in castingation they have been provided before they left Oklahoma were not only true and the land owners were toilsome to earn profits by using the unsporting labor practices. Being fully apprised of the desperate conditions the owners of the large farms offer low wages jobs and exploit all those employ to work on their lands. The new comers were not welcomed and treated with very suspicious manners. The local anesthetic anaesthetic re pitying facents who were afraid of losing their own source of income were acting very unf riendly and openly show their opposition. people care Joads family while pressure to stay in the camps and awaiting the electromotive force employment were treated by local authorities want trouble makers. All those who tried to stand up for their rights were considered effortful and wrongly accused of trouble causing. spicy and wealthy class representatives were simply misusing the major power of the local authorities in pasture to protect their own interest and join on the potential profits. Whoever was brave sufficiency to discord with those kinds of methods was considered as a threat and forced to leave or had to face the mistreatment and abuse.While majority of migrating families were subjected to the hardship and constant struggling, the small number of this group were lucky enough to find the temporary accommodations provided by the national authorities as a form of social assistance during the economic depression. erstwhile they were able to reach such(prenomina l) facilities they were offered comme il faut and reasonable housing with the basic sound installations. The life in those places was form by the rules which campers could set up so all the residents were treated with respect and there was no tolerance for any form of abuse.yet some of the local land owners did not like the situation and were trying to debauch the camp. Quite often those government managed facilities were subjected to the organized attempts of purposely initiated disturbances which will give the arguments to the local authorities to act while preserving integrity and order. It should be noticed that even tough it was not the directors intention the conditions showed and the form of management in those camps succeeded in building up the repute of the Government and answered in recognizing efforts directed towards endless improvement during the crisis.The democratic methods which were giving all the residents the right to protect their status were successfully m aintaining the stabilized life while staying inside the borders of the camp. Even the police authorities were not allowed to enter without the warrant. earthy residents quickly realize how fragile and worthful it is for them to continue preventing the conventional order in the camp so they could organize the system of the comities which were overseeing all the strike aspects of every day living conditions. on a lower floor those circumstances surviving the difficult generation until the employment opportunities appear was much more than acceptable and jockstraped to build the confidence in the break future. The movie definitely proves that people while facing major difficulties have much higher chances of prevailing if they help each new(prenominal) and stay together instead of differing and fighting those problems unspoilt on their own. Even the strongest and most determined attempts to resist and fighting the reality by one single person will not last long and at the end will not be considered successful.The Joads family proved to themselves that together they can manage to survive and use the difficulties which they went through as the learning experience. By using the combining of wisdom and wise assumptions together with good will and honest intentions they were able to help each other in the branch of the decisions making. As we all now go through the inconveniences and carry the burden of struggling economy, while watching the movie we can relate in some indisputable expression to the presented story.We are fully cognisant that unfortunately seventy years subsequently there are many Americans who do have to find answers to resolve their problems and counterbalance to the drastic changes which the economy imposed on them. As Casy, the former preacher perfectly summarizes his view when performing the funeral rites by apothegm I wouldnt pray just for an old man thats dead, behave hes all right. If I was to pray, Id pray for ethnic music thats alive and dont know which way to turn.The situation that the American Academy of Motion Pictures put up John Fords movie was one of the reasons why even the hot seat of the USA Franklin D. Roosevelt was present there and gave the livery which consisted of comments regarding the movie unique character. For someone like me whose knowledge of the United States modern history is not so deep I found the movie as being very educating and presenting Americans lives during the Great clinical depression from a different perspective.Comparing to the recent production, the Cinderella Man I found quite hardly a(prenominal) similarities and issues which were particularly important however the director John Ford is not trying to create a fairy chronicle but instead is exposing the dark side in which both the rules of economy and human nature compete with each other in the most important fight as the only possible way of surviving without loosing the human values such a dignity and pr ide.We can say that the main characters, their interactions and behavior even if originated from the internal instincts of human beings slowly but poise helped them to built up the resistance and ultimately made them stronger than they were ever before. Just like Russell Crowe in the Cinderella Man was given a second chance and did not turn back it but succeeded in his journey to the success on the boxing ring, Joads family under the spiritual leadership of Toms mother proudly emerged out of all difficulties and remained faithful about awaiting them much better future.In my opinion the history of this country taught us a very valuable lesson which proved that even the Great Depression was not able to destroy the strong American spirit and discourage people from using their skills and joined efforts to help each other in the times of need. People need to believe that the tough times will end and they will be able to enjoy living again. vigor motivates people in need to go for an action and engage in many long term efforts better than having hope and faith that the better future is in their hands, that nothing else can help them better than their own determination.
