A film from 1960 called depicted the American south during the Great Depression. It focused on an Agent from the TVA, who had to navigate racism in the south and also deal with concerns from locals about the loss of their property due to eminent domain. Although the TVA provided electricity to areas that had never had it, built much needed infrastructure, and created thousands of jobs for locals (all paid for by the federal government), it also increased distrust of the government in the region as some families were forced to relocate. While those forced to move were adequately reimbursed by the government, they continued to resent the issue because they had to abandon their homes, land, and property.
