520 Sissle and Blake: a short filmed in Lee De Forest's New
York studio with his sound-on-film process in 1923, four
years before Hollywood began to experiment with sound.
Pianist Eubie Blake and Noble Sissle perform their jazz
composition "Affectionate Dan" and a jazzed-up spiritual.
520 Scar of shame: In no film was the racial theme more
apparent than in this story about an ill-matched marriage
between a black concert pianist and a poor, lower class
black woman. Secretly ashamed of her, the young man keeps
his wife hidden from his socially-prominent middle-class
mother. Despite the melodrama, it is a strong statement on
the issues of class and the color caste system which
existed within the African-American community. This was
the first film of the Colored Players Film Corp. of
Philadelphia.
