Description

When wild child Anna Lucasta (Kitt) is banished from the family home by her self-righteous father, she falls into a life of prostitution and into the arms of street-wise sailor Danny Johnson (Davis). But after Anna shocks them all by finally finding true love with a well-heeled young suitor, her unforgiving father sets a vengeful plan in motion to remind his daughter of her sordid past and destroy her future forever!

    Great opportunity to see legendary and important actors from the Black community. Especially in roles that are complex. If you liked Raisin in the Sun (the Pointier original not the remake) check this out. Stirring in its examination on father-daughter relationships, sexual identity and has its comical moments to keep you amused. Eartha steals every scene!
  • WHAT A CLASSIC!

    This movie is a classic! My mom went to the theatre to see this movie several times. This movie was done twice--this version is with an all African American cast! What a feat for the 1950's, and it is a GREAT film. THIS IS ONE TO HAVE IN YOU LIBRARY!
