In this, their only film appearance, the White comedians of radio fame, Freeman Gosden and Charles Correll, bring their Black characters of Amos 'n' Andy to the screen. Although their radio show had been a hit, seeing them in blackface was a different matter. Years later, the characters were brought to TV and were readily accepted when Black men took on the roles of Amos 'n' Andy.
