A- Another fine effort from John Ford. A black man gets accused of a crime and is thought to be guilty because of his skin color. Ford talked about racism in his 1956 classic The Searchers but uses Indians to get his point across. Here, in 1960, he uses a black man. The melodramatic ending really hurt the movie but overall very good.
