Movie Reviews of The Plow That Broke the Plains; 1936
Movie Review: Inaccurate description
Summary: 1 Stars
I have yet to view this version, but please note that if it is the original 1936 version, it would be longer that 25 minutes, as indicated by Amazon and/or the publisher. If it truly is recorded from 1936 16mm film, then it would be about 28 minutes as there was an Epilogue removed a year or two after its its release.
That's also why I gave a 1-star rating. I love the film but I'm guessing this particular product isn't what it claims to be. Too bad - you'd think the National Archives would get it right!
Update: Upon viewing this DVD, this is the shortened version with no Epilogue. Boo. The quality is nice, though - much crisper images and less scratchy sound than many prints/copies.
