The music of the original song "Red River Valley" came from this movie. This music reminded me of my school days. When I hummed this song in those days, I released the sadness of my adolescence, my desire to go home, and my attachment to my family. ;The plot of the movie reminds me of those days in the 1990s, when my hometown was relocated, my younger brother and I rushed home specially. After my mother worshiped our ancestors, we had an incense, a car, a family, and our parents took us with us. Leaving my childhood home, that memory is forever fixed in my memory.

The Grapes of Wrath quotes

  • [last lines]

    Ma Joad: Rich fellas come up an' they die, an' their kids ain't no good an' they die out. But we keep a'comin'. We're the people that live. They can't wipe us out; they can't lick us. We'll go on forever, Pa, 'cause we're the people.

  • [the family is leaving the farm, heading for California]

    Al Joad: Ain't you gonna look back, Ma? Give the ol' place a last look?

    Ma Joad: We're going' to California, ain't we? All right then let's go to California.

    Al Joad: That don't sound like you, Ma. You never was like that before.

    Ma Joad: I never had my house pushed over before. Never had my family stuck out on the road. Never had to lose everything I had in life.
