If my Dad was still living he he would be pissed off from the political parties, burning down small businesses and all the lies being told.

Everytime I had not so nice neighbors, a bar-b- que broke the tension. Even a day at the lake offering to share with the family next to you then they offer to share with the next family would cause a big group effort joining forces and sharing. Pretty soon someone would either bring out a guitar, or CD player, another a Frisby or ball and a party started? I guess I was fortunate. I believe most people are good natured, or want to be?

The Forward at the beginning of the film explains that FDR conceived the idea of the story. He shared it with a magazine editor, and a screenwriter wrote it. Thank you for sharing this.

A good Depression era film. The workers against the underhanded capitalists. I can see the influence of Franklin Roosevelt. Henry Wilcoxon was a fine actor. Born in the Caribbean on the island of Domenica.

Same dramas as today, different props and characters. So heartwarming ending!

I know I did not pay 100% attention to this movie which I had seen before. I paused and returned whilst handling a chore but I'm sure this movie was edited to this shorter version of 52 minutes from ninety or so minutes. Anyone else concur? FDR, wow-wee! What a Progressive thinker. He saved the country in many ways only for "Our Government" to screw it up by taking the towns, cities and states power's away and delegating the power to the Feds.

The U.S. was the slowest country to recover of those that were capitalist at the time. If you think this is a Democrat vs. Republican issue, you are mistaken. Hoover did all sorts of things in a vain attempt to mitigate the problems. Hoover initiated the policies that FDR expanded on. In other words, Hoover started the New Deal. Unfortunately, Hoover should not have gotten involved. He was lambasted by the Democrats for "doing nothing," but he was actually doing too much. If FDR had been even half as smart as he claimed to be, he would have done the opposite of what Hoover did because it was clear that it was not helping.
