Great performance by David Carradine but some of the domestic stuff plays a bit like a made for TV movie to me.
Hey look! Annother bare-bones DVD realease from MGM! I shouldn't complain, at least the transfer was decent which is way better than the usual from these clowns.
Has the feel of a made for TV movie. I don't know enough about the dustbowl years of Guthrie's life to comment on authenticity, but the film does a good job of portraying what Guthrie stood for and the times & the experiences that shaped his songwriting.
A good inspirating movie by the great folk-singer Woody. the man who inspierd Bob Dylan.
Wow David Carradine is amazing in this film! The story is a little slow at times but I would recommend this based on Carradine's performance. The music is also excellent.
Good depiction of 1930s dustbowl era issues and singer-songwriter Woody Guthrie. I would have liked if there had been a bit more focus on Guthrie's songs and career.
This is an inspiring movie. I love David Carradine, especially in this movie.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Bound for Glory" !
