Product Description: Legendary director Clarence Brown brought M-G-M's cameras on location to the deep South to create this powerful and highly-lauded adaptation of the novel by William Faulkner set in a small town in Mississipi. When a local man is murdered, an African American (Juano Hernandez) is the prime suspect. Now, as the dead man's brother whips the local whites into a lynch mob, the accused refuses to confess his guilt or to act as his accuser's inferior. But a few brave people stand up to the town and--without regard to the race of either the victim or the accused--strive to find the startling truth. David Brian and Claude Jarman, Jr. star in this unforgettable film which remains as powerful and timely as it was when originally released in 1949.
