The Good Earth‚ made in 1937‚ was an interesting portrayal of life in China during these times. Although I think it is a great movie for this era‚ I had a hard time relating to the film. The advancements in film have made it hard to go back to older movies; things like digital effects and color have really made older movies seem like ancient history. The characters seemed over dramatized and unrealistic. The plot did not stick to the book and seemed to change some of the symbolism the Buck used.
