    Crain far too pale to play this role - almost albino ! Ava Gardner would have been a better choice .

    After many years, I just re-watched this powerful movie. It still hits hard at ingrained racial prejudice, which sadly still exists in the hearts of many. The battle to overcome it continues.

    Being from the UK it is difficult to understand the US prejudice that continued in the US, well into the 20th Century and still goes on today. It is so wrong on so many levels.

    I appreciate having historical examples of passing to redirect racism away from my brown skin (bred from the five civilized tribes & other natives indigenous to turtle Island).... It's exhausting listening to fools try to convince me that black is a phenotype 😂🪑🎻🥱

    I'm 62 year old Black woman and I am really surprised that a movie like this was made in 1949.

    One more comment, I actually had a cousin named Pinkie. She was very fair with blue eyes. She lived into her 90s.

    Ethel Waters, who played the grandmother is from my hometown of Chester, PA and has a park named after her there.

    Years ago, when I was a newspaper reporter I wrote a story about “passing”. I interviewed several people and did a lot of research for it. One of my subjects was a gentleman that you could’ve looked at all day and never knew he was Black. However, he never tried to pass. I first met him at a social event and he mentioned that he had integrated a school or something. I thought to myself how did he integrate anything. Then it hit me, though I never mentioned to him what I was thinking. Later, I knew he’d be a good subject for my story. He said he was more proud of his grandmother’s manumission papers than any of the European blood he obviously had. He would make a point of letting folks know he was Black because he didn’t want to hear the racist comments folks would make because they assumed he was White. He was a Tuskegee Airman and involved in Civil Rights. On another note, regarding casting, I love Ms Horne and Ms Dandridge but I don’t think either could’ve totally passed for White. There are other Black actresses that could have, though.

    Wanted to give it a thumbs up but it was not there. This was a really good movie. Truly demonstrates the way things were and, thank you, Jesus, how far we have come. America is not perfect but God has brought us a mighty long way!!!!

    They never mentioned that if she did marry her boyfriend, what their children would look like. They never discussed that. I have always liked Ethel Barrymore's acting. I wonder what kind of person she was. They should make this movie again.

    Jeannie Craine’s acting was terrible. Dorothy Dandridge would have been much better.

      Fredi Washington from the original Imitation of Life would have been best for this. But white men touching a Black woman wouldn't have passed the smell test.

    My parents took 5 of us to live in America in 1963 from Cornwall England I had never seen a BLK person before apart from films, got on a bus with my cousin and a pregnant BLK lady got on,I got up to let her sit in my seat and my cousin said sit down we don’t let them have our seats, they were allowed on the buses but had to sit in the back and that was in New Jersey I couldn’t believe it.

      Less than 10 years before you arrived in NJ.... my mother left there with her Irish parents to move back here. Now my brother lives there. 70 years later, she's still a damn bigot and a total Karen. I hate it beyond anything
