There was a drive-in movie back in the 60's or early 70's about a woman who had a black baby because her husband messed around with another woman who had sex with a black guy. The woman lived and died in shame. It was a very popular, cultish movie....believe it or not.  I always thought the name was "Born Black" but I can't find it anywhere.  Even the IMDB. This movie came up in a conversation the other day and there was a bunch of us around the same age, 45-50, who remembered it but couldn't remember the name.  We're not a bunch of old bigots, just trying to remember something out of our past wild times at the drive-ins.

The full title was Born Black (to White Parents), also known as Born Black...to white parents!

No, it's not in regular movie sources like IMDB and allmovies.com  However, it can be found in the US Catholic Bishops movie guide:

Don't know if a copy still exists anywhere.  Don't care to debate if a copy should.
