Curiosidades
Also known as 'High Yeller', which is the slang for 'yellow'. Someone being called 'high yeller'--which means being very fair-complexioned or light-skinned (Black)--did not take it as a compliment, as the name-caller usually mean it in a derogatory way. Those spoken about were looked on as (somehow) being a 'discredit' to 'their race', in spite of having absolutely no control over their skin's color.

Citações
Cynthia 'Cindy' Wood: It's a lousy world we live in. But it's the only one we've got.

Larry Buchanan has made a career out of some bad movies. High Yellow proved he could make a decent film.

High Yellow is a decent film that suffers from a rushed ending.

The movie was fine until the last reel. In High Yellow, Cynthia Hull plays Cindy, a woman of mixed race who attempts to pass as white. She takes a job as a maid for a family that brings new depth into the word dysfunctional.

Among the family members is Judy, a rebellious High School drop-out who makes friends with Cindy. Cindy also makes friends with Judy's brother, George. His character has just been expelled from military school after being falsely accused of being queer!

The film goes through some shocking moments that turn the movie into a good movie about interracial relationships without being too preachy or overly sleazy. Then the final reel. They must have run out of ideas and added a murder plot to finish the film. Oh well, we can't have it all. Regardless, this movie is proof that Buchanan could make a movie without rubber monster masks.
