From the National Theatre's 2014 season of live HD recordings direct from the stage, this is John Steinbeck's classic tale featuring praised performances by James Franco and Chris O'Dowd. The New York production is the first Broadway play to be presented by National Theatre.
"This landmark revival of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck's play is a powerful portrait of the American spirit and a heartbreaking testament to the bonds of friendship. Directed by Tony Award winner Anna D. Shapiro (Broadway's August: Osage County) and co-stars Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl). This production was nominated for two Tony Awards." (National Theatre)

"Shapiro’s handsome, meticulously designed production feels about as fluid as a diorama in a history museum. And its two undeniably talented leading men, though known as quirky and adventurous screen stars, here wear their archetypes like armor."
