A classic!!!
I've been to St louis #1 cemetary a few times in New Orleans, a tour guide said Dennis Hopper has the head of a statue that Peter Fonda is kissing when on the LSD Trip. The also didn't have permission to film there but did it anyway.

just watched this movie for the first time, digitally remastered.
Damn first time..thats surprising..For some reason Dennis Hopper rubs me the wrong fukkin way..
I loved Fonda in this though..and also in Dirty Larry, Crazy Mary..
You old fucks know Fonda vanished for years after this shit..If you pay attention..You will notice Peter Fonda is the old stage coach driver in that recent Russell Crowe western..Name fails me..Maybe 10 to Yuma or something

Those photos above are of of one of America's finest actors, Henry Fonda, from the movie Grapes of Wrath, Fonda played the tragic character Tom Joad, the patriarch of a family during the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The movie focuses on a poor family of sharecroppers driven from their home by drought, severe economic hardship, and ultimately the loss of their sharecropper farm in Oklahoma. In a brutally hopeless situation, they set out for California along with thousands of other "Okies" in search of land, jobs, and a way of life. Fonda was nominated for an Academy Award for his work in the film, which was directed by the great John Ford..
The movie was based on the classic American novel written by John Steinbeck who was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the Nobel Prize for Literature as author of Grapes of Wrath.

BOTH! Two teamer. My parents were both going to college at the time of the book(1939) and Movie(1940) and saw very little of the stereotype Steinbeck tried to convey in his masterpiece. My mother ended up being an english professor, and hardly would discuss the book with me. I still cringe at the words, "Dumb Okie." Wil, there is a slight chance I may be in Vegas during the Bash. Good Luck
Yeah I know..I had it TVO`d and watched it couple days ago..Thats why I used Grapes instead of Midway for Senior..Great movie..Was thinking about that scene in the camp with all those hungry skinny kids as I watched someone dump a half a plate of food in the trash the other day..Shit, least give it to some dog..
It should be noted that John Steinbeck was no one trick pony. In all, he wrote twenty-five books, including sixteen novels, six non-fiction books and several collections of short stories. Including the novella Of Mice and Men, the tragic story of George Milton and Lennie Small, two displaced migrant ranch workers in Great Depression-era California. Several of his works were made into movies including Of Mice and Men several times and the ambitious work East of Eden which Steinbeck published in 1952 and was made into a movie starring James Dean in 1955..
Of Mice and Men also was produced as a Broadway play. It was chosen as Best Play in 1938 by the New York Drama Critics' Circle.
