Larraine Hasbury's great drama from the late 50's was filmed in 1961 with Sidney Poitier, Claudia McNeil, Ruby Dee, Diana Sands and more. It has been revived on Broadway several times all to great acclaim. It shows the ins and outs of a family trying to better themselves with the insurance money left by the late father. The issue of race relations is very pronounced in this dramatic work that holds up so well to this day. Sidney Potier was already a superstar by the time 'Raisin' was filmed.
