@Riech: And that's why it would be stupid to vote for useless do-nothing republicans who can't even get the House in order.

sounds predictive to what is about to happen the american middle class

Be sure you have the suicide hotline number nearby as this movie is so depressing you might want to end it all.

Thanks for this, has me thinking about Hoover hogs & the Milky Way...

Not for everyone (i.e. fans of superhero flicks and the fantastical will be bored), 'Ironweed' is a genuine masterpiece in many ways. Heartbreaking at its core, 'Ironweed' depicts life during the Depression as lived by the disenfranchised and desperate. The always riveting Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep are outstanding; the daily drudgery can be seen in their body language, read in their faces and eyes. Their personal stories requires many shades of subtlety in the performances , and the twosome prove again why their acting skills have been so highly regarded through the years. And Tom Waits surprises as a fellow derelict by proving he has the chops to hang with elite actors. If you enjoy thoughtful dramas as lived through the vagaries of everyday existence among the alcoholic and homeless who somehow maintain a sense of dignity under the most squalid of circumstances, this movie is a must see,

This film is a stark depiction of the harsh life during the Great Depression which was caused by Wall Street greed. Great movie.

Thanks!
