Parts of this film were shot in Philadelphia. Also, Louis W. Kellman Productions was the studio used in Philadelphia. There were also scenes shot on-location in the suburbs. The film is the story of an African-American Jazz musician and his white mistress. It addresses racial issues and in his review, Crowther says Gregory’s character comes off as angry throughout the film despite his respected position as a saxophone player. According to Crowther the film is weak because of the lack of actual reason (evidence beyond racial assumptions) for Gregory’s anger. It does, however, highlight racial issues of the time. By S. Stein
