Intro and outro by film historian John Martello
Post-film discussion with director Larry Peerce!
Three years before Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, this low-budget independent film premiered and was cheered at that year's Cannes Film Festival with Barbara Barrie winning the Best Actress award at Cannes. This landmark film centers on the interracial marriage in northeastern Ohio of a working-class couple, Julie and Frank, and its ramifications. After the film, there will be a zoom call with the director, Larry Peerce, whose work includes Goodbye, Columbus and The Incident.
