A rare all-black cast and crew film. The film suffers from its apparent very low budget, but they make the most of it. I was a bit surprised by there stereotypical behavior of the side-kick, but I suppose that it went with the times. The plot is simple and the acting tolerable. Everything appear ... s to have been shot in one take with probably one camera and microphone. Still, if you are interested in early black cinema, this one is worth a watch.
