Ivan Dixon's 1973 film, The Spook Who Sat by the Door, captures the
intensity of social and political upheaval during a volatile period
in American history. Based on Sam Greenlee's novel by the same
name, the film is a searing portrayal of an American Black
underclass brought to the brink of revolution. This series of
critical essays situates the film in its social, political, and
cinematic contexts and presents a wealth of related materials,
including an extensive interview with Sam Greenlee, the original
United Artists' press kit, numerous stills from the film, and the
original screenplay. This fascinating examination of a
revolutionary work foregrounds issues of race, class, and social
inequality that continue to incite protests and drive political
debate.
