Review of Country

Country (1984)
10/10
Highly under-rated movie
5 November 2021
Some people may consider this movie too slow moving but for those who enjoy a solid story of American life that plagued farmers due to banks playing hardball and low grain prices.

It has a Grapes of Wrath feel to this movie showing to what extent some had to go to just to survive even in there own country.

The cast is top notched, Jessica Lange, Sam Shepherd, Wilfred Bromley....plus the supporting cast. Totally believable story (as my parents went thru the same thing...farm stress).

Farmers do not wear capes, they don't have superpowers....but they truly are heroes.
