Such an important movie. The African-American characters are given personalities and are important to the plot, which was so uncommon for the time. 11 years 10 months ago -

A rather troubling glimpse into Hollywood's treatment of race. The racist stereotypes in this movie sure leave a bitter aftertaste. 12 years 11 months ago
