Wikipedia
Pinky is a 1949 American drama film adapted from the Cid Ricketts Sumner novel by Philip Dunne and Dudley Nichols and was directed by Elia Kazan. John Ford was originally hired to direct the film, but was replaced after one week because producer Darryl F. Zanuck was unhappy with the dailies. Lena Horne and Dorothy Dandridge were considered for the lead role, however, Zanuck chose to cast a white actress instead. Released by Twentieth Century Fox, the film starred Jeanne Crain, Ethel Barrymore, Ethel Waters, and Nina Mae McKinney.
