Un grappolo di sole (1961)
Un assegno di 10.000 dollari, frutto di un'assicurazione, giunge in una modesta famiglia afroamericana di Chicago, all'anziana vedova Lena Younger che, con sua nuora Ruth, vorrebbe acquistare una casetta con giardino in un quartiere più sano e ridente. Invece Walter, figlio di Lena, mortificato dalla sua professione di autista, vorrebbe associarsi con due loschi individui per la vendita dei liquori. Drammatici contrasti imperversano in famiglia, finché Lena, fatto un primo deposito per la casa, dà il resto a Walter pregandolo di disporre come un vero capofamiglia.
