Storyline Originally names Lem Hawkins' Confession, released as Murder in Harlem. Micheaux makes appearance as detective. Songs by Eunice Wilson and Clarence Williams. Using a different cast Micheaux produced a silent version of this picture entitled The Gunsaulus Mystery. Story based on the Stanfield murder case.
Myrtle Gunsaulus, a young girl, is found mysteriously murdered in the basement of a factory, by Arthur Gilpin, the black janitor, who is arrested and charged with the crime. The incidents surrounding the tragedy, the motive, and the strange manner in which the girl was killed, make the case one of the most complicated the courts had ever confronted.
Storyline When a white patient in a hospital dies under the care of a black intern
(Sidney Poitier), the victim's racist brother (Richard Widmark) seeks
to destroy the doctor's career. Although the hospital's idealistic Chief
Resident (Stephen McNally) tries to diffuse the escalating tension, the
victim's ex-wife (Linda Darnell) seems to go along with the
vengeance-seeker, until she realizes she's on the wrong side.
Storyline In a racially mixed American town, a 5-year-old black girl falls
unnoticed into a hidden, forgotten well on her way to school. Having
nothing better to go on, the police follow up a report that the child
was seen with a white stranger, and rumors run wild. Before hapless,
innocent Claude Packard is even found, popular hysteria has him tried
and convicted. But Packard's troubles pale by comparison as ever more
inflated rumors uncap the well of racial tensions and mob violence. And
young Carolyn Crawford, forgotten by most, is still missing...
