An escaped convict goes to a small town to clear his name. He becomes part of a murder plot in order to pull his plan off. A taut blend of noir and social commentary, If He Hollers, Let Him Go! (1968) stars Raymond St. Jacques as James Lake, a wrongfully imprisoned man who escapes from prison to prove his innocence in the brutal rape and murder of a white woman. But as he fights to clear his name, Lake is drawn into an even more dangerous scheme by a manipulative businessman (Kevin McCarthy), who wants him to kill his wealthy wife (Dana Wynter). What follows is a morally murky thriller steeped in racial tension, betrayal, and existential dread. Written, produced, and directed by Charles Martin, and adapted from Chester Himes's groundbreaking 1945 novel, the film is both a crime story and a stark reflection of its turbulent era. Supported by a compelling cast including Barbara McNair, Royal Dano, and John Russell, the film explores systemic injustice and personal desperation with an unflinching eye. This Blu-ray debut features a brand-new 2K restoration sourced from surviving 35mm elements, presented in its original 1.85:1 aspect ratio with color correction to restore its cinematic grit and atmosphere. Often overlooked, If He Hollers, Let Him Go! now stands ready for rediscovery--a searing time capsule of 1960s racial and class anxieties, and a striking showcase for one of the first major Black action leads in American film.
