Title: John Reviews Steinbeck's "Tortilla Flat" Post by: walktall2010 on October 02, 2013, 11:21:58 pm “Ghost Brothers of Darkland County,” John Mellencamp’s theater/music collaboration with Stephen King, is coming to Minneapolis on Halloween at the State Theatre. Meanwhile, the rocker is working on his paintings and re-watching one of his favorite movies, 1942’s “Tortilla Flat.”
Says Mellencamp: “Starring Spencer Tracy and John Garfield, written by John Steinbeck. I love Steinbeck. It’s a movie about possessions and how useless they are. As a matter of fact, my girlfriend [Meg Ryan] said: ‘Do we gotta watch it again?’ It’s kind of an unknown Steinbeck movie. It’s great.” http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/movies/226129431.html Title: Re: John Reviews Steinbeck's "Tortilla Flat" Post by: Mellenfan71 on October 03, 2013, 06:51:48 pm Steinbeck is a winner.
