Beware (1948)
Look
UP! Look OUT! Look SWEET! - The Maestro With A Beat!
One of the few all-black productions of the 1940s to garner attention
in the "white" trade press, Beware is a vehicle for bandleader
Louis Jordan, here cast as a college alumnus named Lucius Brokenshire
Jordan. Thanks to the economic duplicity of its benefactor's grandson,
Jordan's alma mater runs out of money. When he learns about the college's
plight, our hero not only stages an impromptu fund-raising show,
but also settles the hash of the crooked grandson.
