Plot

A successful African American undertaker in Tennessee seeks a divorce, and a murder follows involving corrupt white police.

Sinekatalog’s take

William Wyler's last film, with Roscoe Lee Browne, Lee J. Cobb and Lola Falana, is blunt and bleak, a late, angry social drama.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
