Intruder in the Dust (1949)

Rural Mississippi in the 1940s: Lucas Beauchamp, a local black man with a reputation of not kowtowing to whites, is found standing over the body of a dead white man, holding a pistol that has recently been fired. Quickly arrested for murder and jailed, Beauchamp insists he's innocent and asks the town's most prominent lawyer, Gavin Stevens, to defend him, but Stevens refuses. When a local boy whom Beauchamp has helped in the past and who believes him to be innocent hears talk of a mob taking Beauchamp out of jail and lynching him, he pleads with Stevens to defend Beauchamp at trial and prove his innocence.

A frank exploration of race relations in the South. Didactic, but mostly in a good way.

Ahead of its time in tackling the issues surrounding biassed justice in the fourties. A black man finds himself in the horrid position of being persecuted before having a honest tribulation. His only rescue is an unlikely band of heroes: an angelic young man, his black friend and an old lady. The movie is very delicate in its subject matter and doesn't judge any of its characters. They are part of a system that is outrageously wrong. I particularly love the character of Lucas Beauchamp (Juano Hernandez), he defies being a caricature by playing him as the strong and powerful man that he is.

A brilliantly accomplished "racial bias" cycle film of the 1940s.

Great movie. William Faulkner's racially charged story of a Black man who was found with a smoking gun and a murdered community leader. The only thing standing between him and a lynch mob of hyper-racist is a small elderly woman and two teenage boys. Excellent choice for Black history month. WARNING: The n-word is used liberally.
