Review

it’s a good movie, but not a great one. walter huston had a good performance and the farmer’s character was well cast…he had a face that at one moment was very sympathetic and sad looking, and the next looked very self-righteous and bourgeois. the score was good, but quite frankly didn’t seem to play enough of a part to earn the oscar. there were some good special effects for the time and some nice camera effects here and there that kept things interesting.
