Movie Plot

L.B. Jones is a well-to-do African-American funeral director who comes to Oman Hedgepath's firm in search of legal representation. Jones wishes to divorce his young wife Emma, but his grounds make the case a hot news-Jones has learned Emma has been having an affair with Willie Joe Worth, a white police officer who is the father of Emma's unborn child. Hedgepath fearing that the revelations of a public divorce trial will rock the race conscious town. He has a private conversation with Worth, hoping to settle the matter quietly out of court. In doing so, Hedgepath ignites a course of events more devastating than any divorce trial could have produced. Worth does not want his affair dragged into a court of law, so he and his fellow officer Stanley Bumpas violently take matters into their own hands.

How do we recommend titles?

With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
