    Strange, but many interesting details. The Ali Haban character referring to Allah, for instance; the Wilsons’ formal, but touching way of speaking to each other; the notion of setting aside oil land in favor of the future, rather than gutting it now & emptying the piggy bank to go shopping & a character named “Langley” who wants to work in fingerprint ID-ing for Mr. Hoover. Thank you, again ReelBlack, for a forgotten retrospective of 1939, during The Depression, too! When you think about what could’ve been accomplished had the progress been uninterrupted, if the filmmakers had ever had real support & real access, so much achievement & dignity could’ve been generated.

    I'm pretty sure that's Dorothy Dandridge's mother, Ruby Dandridge, at 11:20.

    Who was the guy with the deed? Was he the Prince’s partner? What actually killed the father?
