Grapes of Wrath Movie Questions
Question One
The Joad’s were kicked off of their farm because they could no longer pay the rent and rates. Normally, each farm owner was supposed to pay the local government or authorities and at the time, the country was going through the Great Depression.

He was also afraid that the same fate that befell some of the neighbors could befall him and this made him remain at the farm.
