Who shot Vinson Gowrie in the back? The jailhouse at Jefferson, Mississippi, may not hold the actual kiIler, but it does have the suspect an angry Iynch mob wants: Lucas Beauchamp, who has Iong refused to exhibit the obsequious attitude expected of black peopIe in Jefferson. Based on WiIIiam Faulkner's noveI and filmed in his hometown of Oxford, Intruder ln The Dust is both a gripping whodunit and a milestone of social-conscience fiImmaking. CIaude Jarman, Jr. (reunited with director Clarence Brown of The Yearling) plays the youth whose troubled sense of right makes him a catalyst in solving the mystery. And Juano Hernandez is memorabIe as Lucas: proud, perceptive, strong - words that also describe this superb fiIm named one of 1949's 19 best by the National Board of Review. |
