Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Elia Kazan made his directorial debut with this adaptation of Betty Smith's novel about a bright, young girl growing up in turn-of-the-century Brooklyn, trying to rise above her tenement existence. Sensitively filmed by Kazan, and graced with wonderful performances by James Dunn as the wistful, alcoholic father and Dorothy McGuire as a strong-willed mother. Peggy Ann Garner won a special Oscar for her performance. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great!
This is such a great movie. I am really surprised that it is not on DVD yet. As far as I can tell, Fox Movie Channel is the only network that plays it and that is not offered with our cable package. I would buy a couple of copies if it were on DVD.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Buy it on eBay
On eBay you can likely find this film on DVD in Region 0 from Korea (plays anywhere in the world). I bought one and the packaging and DVD quality is first rate.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - BUYERS BEWARE! BOOTLEG DVD.
This classic film has NEVER been issued on DVD. What is on offer here is a bootleg. Don't support the theft of copyright by purchasing an expensive, illegal copy of doubtful quality



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you like the movie, read the book
I have loved A Tree Grows In Brooklyn since the first time I saw it. I purchased it from a seller on Amazon and was disappointed in the quality of the DVD. It looks like someone burned it off of a VHS tape. Beside the point, I also got the book by Betty Smith and I can't believe the differences and similarities of the book and DVD. The novel is quite thick and I know a movie made to follow the book would be 5 hours long or more, but I can't stop thinking about the actors and their characters in ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great story and service
Mom's been gone for 15 years but when growing up she always mentioned A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. I'm now 67 and just read the book so HAD to have the movie. What great service to get it to me just as I was reading the last page....
