The Grapes of Wrath makes two Steinbeck adaptations in a row here at Screen Test of Time. John Ford’s classic starring Henry Fonda is a masterwork of American cinema, with beautiful cinematography by Gregg Toland, already demonstrating some of the genius he’ll bring to 1941’s Citizen Kane. It’s an excellent movie, no doubt about it— but should you watch it?
