OUR DAILY BREAD

NOTRE PAIN QUOTIDIEN
King Vidor
1934 United States 75 minutes English

“I had taken my material from the pages of the newspapers themselves and from the original article in Reader’s Digest. I selected the idea and made the film as an American document, recorded the facts and tried to influence opinion neither one way nor the other. Perhaps the facts were not too pretty at the time. … I don’t think I should have been censured for depicting them as they were.” (King Vidor)
