Plow That Broke The Plains, The (1936) -- (Movie Clip) The Sun Baked The Earth Coming out of writer-director Pare Lorentz’s affecting if imprecise montage of the grain-boom following the First World War, a dramatic turn, with Thomas Hardie Chalmers narration, of the catastrophic onset of the Dust Bowl, in the influential federally-financed New Deal documentary, The Plow That Broke The Plains, 1936.

Plow That Broke The Plains, The (1936) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Continent Of Grass Made for the New Deal federal Resettlement Administration by the progressive former critic Pare Lorentz, who had zero film-making experience at the time, and narrated by the former opera star Thomas Hardie Chalmers, the opening of the sensational documentary The Plow That Broke The Plains, 1936.
