Audience Member Excellent Oscar Micheaux race movie. Intriguing script, presenting Black people in a respectable fashion. His 38 films kept many Black actors working during the Great Depression. The quality of the film has degraded over the years, but the acting and script is quite good. Check out the actor, James Earl Jones father, Robert Earl Jones as the detective here. I think James was born a few years after this film was made and he is now 88. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member good all black mystery/suspenser Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
