[Machine Translation] The masterful use of Cinemascope in the dramatic presentation by the master filmmaker Kazan, J. Dean's performance as it is, and the unforgettable theme music by L. Rosenman...all the elements of an excellent film have been brought together in a sarcastic manner. The elements of a good film are all there in a disgusting way, but nothing could be more accomplished than this depiction of adolescence in the throes of an unfulfilling destiny. Based on Steinbeck's long novel, which is based on the well-known Old Testament Cain and Abel, the film is only partially based on the novel, but it captures all the essence of the novel. Cal, a troubled child of the Trascoux family who runs a large farm, questioning his birth, where only his mild-mannered older brother is loved and treated coldly by his father, tracks down his mother ( J.V. Fleet in a terrific supporting Oscar performance) who left them and runs away, and hears answers that he did not expect.... And the ending, which is impossible to watch without tears, is also wonderful. J. Harris as Abra, the brother's fiancee who gradually becomes attracted to Cal, impresses with her motherly generosity. But then again, Jimmy Dean is Jimmy Dean.
