A devastating film. One of the rawest, most lacerating portraits of humanity in extremis ever put on film. Set in 1932 but applicable anytime resources become inadequate to provide for the population.
Very strong character development, brilliant direction and outstanding performances all around (special mention to Susannah York for her Harlow-to-meltdown turn). An unforgettable film that hasn't aged at all.
