Leave your thoughts about Bound for Glory.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertOne of the best-looking films ever made, in its photography, in its use of locations, in its recreation of the America that Woody Guthrie discovered. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonThe role was earmarked for Dustin Hoffman, Jack Nicholson and Robert De Niro (among others), but it's hard to imagine even these accomplished thespians matching the sly insouciance or devil-may-care charm which Carradine makes indispensable to the part. |
| VarietyVariety StaffBound for Glory is outstanding biographical cinema, not only of the late Woody Guthrie but also of the 1930s Depression era which served to disillusion, inspire and radicalize him and millions of other Americans. |
| Village VoiceMolly HaskellWith Haskell Wexler's splendid photography and Leonard Rosenman's fine score, the film provides a poetic yet authentic view of Depression-era America with the symbolic figure of Guthrie (an impressive David Carradine) at its very centre. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullHope you like folk music, because there isn't much variety to be found among his music. Neither is there much variety in the scenery. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIt's a story that's truly worth telling, but should have been pruned by 30 minutes and it wouldn't have lost a thing artistically. |
| The New YorkerPauline KaelAshby is excellent on atmosphere but fair to middling on character. When the film makes a sudden transition from epic to melodrama, things fall apart. |
| User ReviewBill MLoved this movie!! David Carradine was superb. Goes well with the Pete Seeger movie, they're both a real slice of American history that's enjoyable and hopeful, and a nice antidote to the stupid-ass politics of the day. |
| User ReviewJeff BI found the movie to be real. It did a great job showing how things were at that time. David Carradine and Ronny Cox did a great job. I enjoyed the music. This film has awesome quality. |
| User ReviewElizabeth SSocialism alive and strong in US culture. Very very inspiring movie about Woody Guthry. |
