A beautiful black gangster's moll flees to Harlem with a trunkload of gold after a shootout, unaware that the rest of the gang, and a few other unsavoury characters, are on her trail. A pudgy momma's boy becomes the object of her affections and the unlikely hero of the tale. Written by Anonymous
People who have not lived the black experience have no idea what they are experiencing in this movie. The characters are true to form from my black experience growing up in the 50's
