A racially charged film, based on the play which caused Sartre to be deemed "anti-American" for its incisive critique of racism in America. A prostitute is compelled to testify against an innocent African American in a murder cover-up.
8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus. Light ware and curling overall, scattered manuscript ink and pencil annotations to the versos. (Inventory #: 141395)
