Storyline:I""m gonna reach up and pick me an orange whenever I want it.With some grapes.Now there""s somethin"" I ain""t never had enough of."In a tender reunion scene, Tom""s mother Ma Joad (Jane Darwell) comes out to greet her son in the yard.Dad was a Yankees fan then, so, of course, I rooted for Brooklyn.But in ""58, the Dodgers moved away, so we had to find other things to fight about.We did.And when it came time to go to college, I picked the farthest one from home I could find.This, of course, drove him right up the wall, which, I suppose, was the point.Officially, my major was English, but really, it was the Sixties.I marched, I smoked some grass, I tried to like sitar music, and I met Annie.The only thing we had in common was that she came from Iowa, and I had once heard of Iowa.After graduation, we moved to the Midwest and stayed with her family as long as we could, almost a full afternoon.The flip-side of this dark and serious buddy picture was its major competitor of the year, the M-rated, humorous revisionistic western/comedyButch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)with its heroes Butch Cassidy (Paul Newman) and he Sundance Kid (Robert Redford).The fake documentary filmIngagi (1930), a successful exploitation film set in the Congo jungle, also must have influencedKing Kong""s making with its giant gorillas and native women being sacrificied to an ""ape god"".Ripley discovered, from Dr.Gediman who was encased there in the nest, that the Queen had acquired a "human reproductive system" from her, meaning that she could give birth from a womb rather than from eggs or hosts.
