    Fonda is magnificent in Grapes of Wrath. I watched that movie in high school. Loved it then, still love it now.

    One of John Ford's best and one of Fonda's best. Amazing how many "liberal minded" films he starred in being the conservative he was but maybe that was the trick. Sometimes playing opposite of what you are or believe can be quite convincing. I actually think he's a bit sexy in this film and it's the only time I will say that about Henry Fonda, lol.
