John Deere Farm Days

About This Movie

John Deere Farm Days is one of those documentaries that really captures the essence of agricultural life in a very straightforward way. Directed by Tom McComas, it meanders through fields filled with John Deere machinery - tractors, combines, planters, you name it. The film doesn't rush, opting instead for a slower pace that gives you time to appreciate the hard work behind farming. It's interesting how it weaves in the role of bees and the visit to an apple orchard. There's a certain charm in watching the tractors at places like Santa Anita Race Track, juxtaposing the high-paced world of equestrian sports with the grounded nature of farming. The practical effects are just the real deal, no fancy edits here. Overall, it’s an interesting slice of life that shows a side of agriculture many might overlook.
