a| Our Daily Bread (1934) is a landmark of socially conscious films, produced and directed by King Vidor, who made such earlier masterworks as The Big Parade, The Crowd, Hallelujah! and The Champ. This deeply personal work was rejected by the studios, nor could Vidor obtain bank financing for a film reflecting unfavorably on banks. In the end he mortgaged his home and most of his possessions to finance Our Daily Bread, which was released by United Artists at the insistence of its partner and Vidor's friend, Charlie Chaplin. The film advocates a back-to-the-land lifestyle for dispossessed urbanites; it was inspired by the actual cooperative pictured in The New Frontier, a government documentary also included on this DVD. The finale of Our Daily Bread, which depicts digging an irrigation ditch, is one of the classic sequences in all of American cinema.
