Black Interest 72 mins B&W 1947

Cab Calloway plays himself in a plot about jealousy, night clubs, and gangsters. Ends with a series of musical numbers. All-black cast. Must see for this genre. Lots of jazz numbers highlight this story of a bandleader who is caught between his resourceful lady manager and his jealous girlfriend who's put out a gangland hit on him. Songs include: ^Minnie's a Hepcat Now^, ^Hey Now!^, ^Bop Bop^, ^At Dawn Time^, ^Don't Falter at the Altar^ & more. Dir. Josh Binney
