Our Daily Bread


 King Vidor's "Our Daily Bread" 1934 stars Tom Keene, Karen Morley, John Qualen, Addison Richards, Barbara Pepper. Vidor went to Irving Thalberg who liked the idea but he didn't feel it suited MGM. Vidor mortgaged his home and produced it himself as well as directed. It wasn't a big box office hit but it's still viewed today. I became interested upon learning about Karen Morley and Barbara Pepper has a good role in this as the bad girl. It took me a while to see it as I felt the "let's get back to earth" message might be overdone but it isn't It's an optimistic film about working together. I'm glad I saw it.
