Flame in the Streets*
(GB 1961)
A factory union boss finds his liberal values tested when his daughter falls in love with a Jamaican schoolteacher.
Rather obvious interracial drama, not always ideally filmed in Cinemascope (and converted to black and white for its American release), but with some powerful moments of performance.
Written by: Ted Willis, based on his play "Hot Summer Night").
Producer/Director: Roy Baker.
Starring: John Mills, Sylvia Syms, Brenda de Banzie, Earl Cameron, Johnny Sekka, Ann Lynn, Wilfrid Brambell, Meredith Edwards, Gretchen Franklin, Barbara Windsor.
Photography: Christopher Challis.
Music: Philip Green.
