Storyline
Plot Summary |
En route to a job, New York-based model Marsha Mitchell decides to stop for under 24 hours in the southern American town of Rock Point to visit her sister Lucy Rice, whom she has not seen in two years, and meet Lucy's husband Hank Rice for the first time. Upon arriving in Rock Point, Marsha witnesses a Ku Klux Klan slaying: she later learns that the victim was Walter Adams, an out-of-town reporter who was to write an exposé on the Klan. Marsha even saw two of the men's faces after they removed their hoods, but they didn't see her. Upon later arriving at Lucy's house, Marsha is shocked to see that Hank was one of the Klansmen who committed the murder; Lucy was unaware that he was a Klansman. Marsha decides to confront Hank and Lucy about what she saw. Meanwhile, county prosecutor Burt Rainey knows that the Klan committed the murder, everyone in town is aware that the Klan committed the murder, but Rainey knows that no one will come forward to implicate the Klan for what they see as the good of the town. He is also aware that Marsha would have been in the area when the murder was committed and wants to talk to her; he hopes that her outsider status would let her speak freely if she had indeed seen something. Marsha must decide what to say to Rainey, specifically taking into account how best to protect her and Lucy's welfare, which includes the fact that Lucy is pregnant. Written by Huggo |

Did You Know?
Trivia | Joan Crawford was asked by studio boss Jack L. Warner to play Doris Day's sister in the film. Crawford declined, saying, "Come on, Jack. No one would ever believe that I would have Doris Day for a sister!" See more » |
Goofs | The cabbie who declines to give Marsha a ride turns out to be a participant in the planned Klan lynching at the jailhouse, but he tells her to walk to the Recreation Center just 10 blocks away, knowing that she would need to pass the jailhouse on the way and possibly witness the crime. He could easily have driven her to her destination in a few minutes and still would have had plenty of time to drive back to the jailhouse to participate in the reporter's murder. See more » |

Quotes |
Burt Rainey:
Just wearing that hood doesn't change your voice, Walker. Am I supposed to be afraid of you because your face is covered up? It'll take more than these sheets you're wearing to hide the fact that you're mean, frightened little people, or you wouldn't be here, desecrating the cross. Charlie Barr: In the name of the imperial Klan... Burt Rainey: Don't give me that Halloween routine. See more » |
