So it Was Dirty?
Yeah, I get it. Don't need 4 hours to understand.
If it's dirty, you move. It's less dirty...
This reminds me of a South Park episode where Will Smith moves his family to the town, and everybody gets jealous of their wealth. His little boy doesn't understand why everyone is jealous, and it's explained to him that they don't have as much money. The little boy's response is, "why don't their mommies and daddies make some movies."
These events took place during the Great Depression, even if they could scrape the money together to move, there weren't any jobs to be had where they did move. Many of the ones that did scrape the money together and fled to California had it even worse, they were not welcome by the locals because they were competition for what few meager jobs were availabl, and they were abused and discriminated against. At least where they were, they could try to look after each other and help each other out.
I realize this was probably just a trolling post, but on the off chance you were serious, I figured I would respond.
I was commenting more on the dull documentary, not legitimately putting down the people. Your point is taken, though
shareIf it hasn't been made clear to you recently, you are a piece of sh!t for disrespecting the destruction of these people's hard work and hope, however misplaced or poorly executed. Everything they had was invested in that land and properties, and who could have expected a drought to have persisted for so long, or to wreak such unprecedented havoc as a result of a new, highly-sanctioned form of industrial farming?
Perhaps someday you will come to understand such loss that drives people to suicide?

he just thought the movie was boring. take your crazy pills.
It's not crazy to take offense to someone who makes a snotty, pissy comment about a work which tries to make sense of the immense hardships (and even deaths) or thousands if not hundreds of thousand of people. share
