"Sheriff Stinchcomb said several white persons watching the film called and objected to the romantic scenes involving the white girl and the Negro man." "The sheriff emphasized that he was not acting as a censor...He said he had been assured the film would not be displayed in Fayetteville Saturday night."

Song from the film, "Gotta Travel On"
Quotes from the film:
Benson (Mel Ferrer): I have nothing against negroes, Ralph.
Ralph (Harry Belafonte): That's white of you.
Sarah (Inger Stevens): Women enjoy parlor games.
This enigmatic Stockholm-born beauty had everything going for her, including a rapidly rising film and TV career. Yet on April 30, 1970, at only 35, Inger Stevens would become another tragic Hollywood statistic (suicide by overdose; 3rd attempt) - added proof that fame and fortune do not always lead to happiness.
