"Frontier Circus: Coals of Fire" (1962, USA). Director: William Witney.
Starring: Richard Jaeckel, Sammie Davis, Jr. and John Derek.
My search for the appearances of the Bates House on the small screen has led me to watch episodes of old American TV series, like "Wagon Trail" and "Frontier Circus", which were never shown on Norwegian TV.
This is the first time I have seen Sammie Davis, Jr. as a dramatic actor. He gives a touching portrayal of Cato Richards, a former slave. The interplay between Davis and Jaeckell is magnificent.
