Edge of the City
N.p. N.p., Circa 1957. Two vintage reference photographs from the 1957 film, one showing Sidney Poitier, and one showing Poitier with John Cassavetes.
Two New York longshoremen—one white, one Black—find their budding friendship threatened by the white longshoreman's supervisor, a vicious racist. One of the first mainstream films to depict an interracial friendship, and one of the first films to depict an African American in a position of authority over a white man.
Set and shot on location in New York.
8 x 10 inches. Near Fine.
