“There are images in Hal Ashby's BOUND FOR GLORY so striking or so beautiful I doubt I'll ever forget them.” - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
“A hauntingly beautiful, socio-political film.” - Ruth Batchelor, Los Angeles Free Press

Wexler won an Academy Award for Best Cinematography for this sprawling and stunning portrait.
