Based on the best seller by Robert Penn Warren, Band Of Angels is a story of Hamish Bond, a plantation owner with a secret past of slave trading.  The plot centers on a freedom-yearning slave Bond has raised as a son and a fiery belle who goes on the auction block once her part-African heritage is revealed and is sold to Bond.  In the end, Band Of Angels brings to vivid screen life the privileged society of the Old South, the shame of slavery and the clashes between North and South, black and white, as well as, man and woman.  Starring Clarke Cable, Yvonne De Carlton and Sidney Poitier.  Full screen in color.  Released in 1957.  Runtime 127 minutes.
