Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, Let the Circle Be Unbroken, The Road to Memphis, and All the Days Past, All the Days to Come are all deserving to be made into movies with modern technology. The books are amazing and deserving of so much more attention. So sad that this is the only movie made and its not even fully available to watch in completion.
Since they’re remaking movies this book along with the subsequent books after are deserving of modern movies. Let The Circle Be Unbroken was also a masterpiece.
That's because this is the shortened, butchered version of the movie. The original was a 3-part miniseries with many more scenes. I remember recording it from the TV during reruns, and watched it many times as a kid. Wish I still had it.
Thank you for sparring me from reading the whole book for school. I was way behind and we where supposed to finish it tomorrow and I'm still on chapter 4 💀
II saw on IMDB there's a 4 hour version of this (It was originally broadcast a 2-part series, and was much truer to the book), has anyone seen it or know where to find it?
I noticed that it doesn't show the kids going to school and getting covered in mud because of the bus driver inside the movie rather than what it talks about in the book. And kids don't say mud eater to LM. 31:44 ... Yeah. Those grunts SURE are REALISTIC sounds!

1983… We read this book in my 8th grade English class.
I read this a few years ago in my 7th grade Honors English class, such a good book.

Yes!!!!
I used to love this book when I was a kid
Thank you. This movie is unavailable on streaming and really appreciate you making it viewable.
I loved this book. It deserves a movie. Too bad Michael Clarke Duncan is dead, he would’ve been a perfect LT Morrison.
Is this not a movie?
Thank you for uploading. I wish the full movie was available.
The weird part is that the beginning of this movie, when "papa" gets shot, doesn't happen until page 211(in chapter 10) in the book.
Yeah I’ve noticed things like that. Especially with movies about books

It sucks that that’s when the movie starts because, even though it would’ve been hard in the 70s, I would’ve loved to see the bus crash in movie form
Love this book too. Thank you for posting!
Huge difference between the novel which was published in 1976 but still amazing.

For what class?
@@pressmin it’s English for me but in history we are also learning about black history
ME TOO
Lmao nigga said fuck books ima just watch the movie
2 months late but i'd say the movie isnt as accurate to the book and the book explains more than the movie did. The movie felt rushed.
A true-to-life story. Not light entertainment. But real and heartfelt, and very well done. Thanks tainlor. Please keep these excellent posts coming.
thank you for sharing !
Beautiful movie
I also have a book about it called ROLL OF THUNDER HEAR MY ROAR
I have to watch this for English class 😀
I promise you the book is way more descriptive and entertaining😊😊The movie is an okay👍

I've been trying to find it for 20 years. I used to have a copy on VHS that I recorded from the TV. The full version is so much better.
the fight scene at 31:56 tho... that's brutal
I just realized something hilarious! press play on the movie but hold down on your 5 key! XDDDDDDD
I love this movie but I don't like on how it only gives part of the book in the movie
I'd like to see all parts
THIS IS SO SAD

I noticed that it doesn't show the kids going to school and getting covered in mud because of the bus driver inside the movie rather than what it talks about in the book. And kids don't say mud eater to LM.
