Plot
The singer Woody Guthrie.
Sinekatalog’s take
Hal Ashby's biopic follows Woody Guthrie from the Dust Bowl to folk-music fame. David Carradine is excellent, and Haskell Wexler's golden photography makes a handsome, unsentimental portrait of an American troubadour.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
