Movies which are set during The Great Depression!

Dear Musicals.Net Posters,

Which movies are set, for a great deal of their running time, during The Great Depression?

I can think of such movies as "Grapes of Wrath", "Splendor in the Grass", "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?", "Annie", and "The Journey of Natty Gann", but how many more are there?

Thanks in advance for your replies.
