Based on Donald Davis and Owen Davis' stage-adaptation of Pearl S. Buck's sprawling novel, Sidney Franklin's The Good Earth is the story of a Chinese farming couple whose lives are torn apart by poverty, greed, and nature. Paul Muni stars as Wang Lung a hardworking, but poor, farmer who weds freed-slave O-Lan (Luise Rainer). They struggle to build a life together, but after finally finding success, a plague of locusts descends upon their land, bringing a true test of the couple's perseverance. For her performance, Luise Rainer won the second of back-to-back Best Actress Oscars, while cinematographer Karl Freund took home an Academy Award for his photography work. The Good Earth was the final film production of Irving Thalberg, who died before the film was completed. Matthew Tobey, Rovi

I recently purchased an old classic DVD from Alibris entitled the Good Earth. The cost of the movie was extremely low. As always, the DVD arrived by/before the date promised. The DVD was as always in excellent condition and well packaged. This company is very reputable and because of the excellent prices I have been able to really expand my DVD library. I love Alibris. If you are looking for an old book or movie, you stand a good chance in finding it here. Trying to save money -- this is the place. As soon as I place my order -- I immediately get E-mail confirmation of my order and an update on when I can expect it to arrive. I have ordered numerous items from Alibris and NEVER had a problem. I am totally satisfied and without reservation tell you that you will not be disappointed in using them.
