The black actor in this film is my father. More of his film are on my YT page. Trivia fact... my father was offered In The Heat Of The Night, after this was released. Due to timing conflicts, he couldn't go to Hollywood. I think the part went to Sidney Poitier.

So many films out there with black content that I've never heard about, that were kept very low key under the radar, or were never shown. But yet, they still continue to keep pushing racist clown films like 'Birth of a Nation" especially in film schools and they have the audacity to say it was the greatest film ever made..for whom??? Thank goodness for all the hard work you do to bring these films to our attention and enjoyment. I love your channel, I enjoy watching these films, Thank you so much for finding these hidden gems and posting them on your channel. Great work and very much appreciated! Thank you!!🙏🏾 🙏🏾✨✨✨

Most of the music score is actually library music by the late, great John Barry (best known for his James Bond scores)! These are from his awesome "Mood One" through "Mood Four" tracks, which I believe were originally intended for the British movie BEAT GIRL (1960)! The intense music is called "Mood Three," which was also recorded as a faster stereo version called "Beat For Beatniks." "Mood Four" is the quieter, slower music.

@@ryuuseipro Ronald Stein composed music used in Reptilicus? Thanks ! Didn't know that til now. Portions of Reptilicus' music can be heard during the pre credit sequence in "Curse of the Swamp Creature". Stein's music features such beautiful harmonic discord especially in "Day the World Ended" which is also heard during the opening credits of "It's Alive !" The slow, eerie melody played on the strings is haunting and deliciously unsettling, similar to Robert Cobert's scores for the original Dark Shadows tv series.

I'm only 40 minutes into this MOVIE which I had no intention of watching it through but I was stricken by the storyline. And for the first time I understood the meaning of the word "PASSING" which if my memory serves me right was a concept I briefly learned from a recent advertisement of a show either on Netflix or some other streaming service. I don't remember the name of that show which was set in the early 1900s. I remember briefly reading about a light skinned black girl passing as a White girl. And that's all I remember from that show. But when I heard the maid character say the word "pass" in a conversation with the chauffeur, I was intrigued. I had to pause the movie to write this because I'm now truly invested in this storyline. I'm enjoying this free movie immensely for a Saturday night movie night. I'm already thinking that I'm going to have to see this movie once again...perhaps over and over and over again. Which is quite surprising for myself because I'm not into old classic movies as such. But oh well. Here we go. I'll be back at the end of the movie to tell you my thoughts for the rest of the movie. But so far, so 👍 good. I'm loving it. The girl that plays the maid, is quite a good actress and I'm not sure if she's Black or not in real life. UPDATE: I just finished watching the entire movie. And let me just tell you how impressed I was for the storyline and the acting. I would watch it again and again and again. I think this movie could have a re-make for sure. And perhaps add a few more plot lines and details to stretch it to 2 hrs. Perhaps a few more details concerning the Sergeant and his association with the father and also more details about George and his doings in the military. And also more details of the chauffeur and especially the details of the wife and her meetings with the Priest and their sessions. All in all what a SPLENDID and WONDERFUL classic of a movie!! I truly enjoyed that film.

White wife, white kids etc. When he died he put it in His will that he wanted his funeral to be in his hometown and he wanted the family down home to know what had a happened to him. Long story short...his white family came down to Louisiana and found out for the 1st he was black. 😆 🤣

They could have made this into a daytime soap during the '60s. The intrigue, the drama, the sets. If I remember right there were quite a few black movies made that decade. I was born and raised in northern Ohio and had never heard the phrase "high yellow." Interracial sex was a new thing on screen but here I see she did the deed, "because you need to prove it to yourself" (that he wasn't gay). I knew a guy that used that when he was trying to get a girl to go to bed with him and the girl was eager to show him he wasn't gay. But I enjoyed this movie immensely, very entertaining.

Thats was funny when she told her she can pass for a white girl, and she said "I intend to"... Ahhh, to be caucasian is such a privilege.. Ask any caucasian person, from any background and ask them to switch places with a black person, they wont...especially if they brown or darker..

I was in a hospital once with a black girl who was suicidal and balled into a fetal position in a corner because she was trapped in her black body,, it was the saddest thing I've ever seen,, I often wonder what became of her and what made her that way,, 😔
