Storyline A young, idealistic man returns home to the plantation where he grew up
in servitude. With him, he brings his fiance, Lutiebelle, in hopes of
convincing the plantation owner that she is really his cousin in order
to secure the family inheritance. To aid in the comic complications that
follow are his family members Missy and Gitlow, and the plantation
owners endearing (but ineffectual) son Charlie.
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...
Storyline Eight drug addicts are waiting for their connection in a New York
apartment belonging to Leach. Jim Dunn, a budding filmmaker, has agreed
to pay for the fix if the addicts will allow him to film the connection
scene. After the men get their shots, they talk Dunn into trying heroin
in order to understand the subject "first hand." He becomes ill and
while sleeping, Leach takes an overdose that puts him into a coma. Dunn
recovers, with the aid of the connection, and writes off the film as a
failure.
