In Georgia, Henry Warren vuole assolutamente le terre di suo cugino Rad e del negro Scott. Accusa di possesso illegale Scott e fa in modo che gli sia anche attribuita la colpa di un grave incidente, provocato invece da lui stesso e di cui è vittima suo figlio Colie. È nobile l'assunto ideologico, grossi sono i nomi che troviamo fra gli interpreti, ma la sceneggiatura è pesantemente vincolata a banali luoghi comuni, fino a punte di involontario grottesco. Nemmeno Preminger, che pure è un gran regista, riesce a salvare l'operazione.
