...strengths of Brother Can You Spare A Dime? lie in the director's creation of a vivid image of a decade characterized by uncertainty and despair, a decade brightened only by America trust in Roosevelt as a paternal cult figure and by the refreshingly lighthearted fantasies of Hollywood. Disorder and confusion are starkly represented in scenes depicting violent strikes at a Ford Motor Company plant, a Communist rally in New York, a Ku Klux Klan gathering and MacArthur's dispersal of the Bonus Army's Washington gathering in the waning days of the Hoover Administration...
