Nothing But a Man

N.p. Cinema V, 1964. Two vintage studio still photographs from the 1964 film.

An African American railroad worker attempts to maintain his dignity and self-respect in the face of small-town racism and a troubled familial past. While initially the film faced a limited release due to its complex portrayal of southern prejudice and class divides, it has since become regarded as an important example of neorealistic American cinema, and was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry in 1993.

Set outside Birmingham, Alabama, and shot on location in Atlantic City and Cape May, New Jersey.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good, with light creasing and fading.

National Film Registry.
