Storyline
Sassy Janie Starks looks unlike to get anywhere
in pre-Great War Easton, Florida, but lands the best colored catch, lively
shopkeeper Joe Starks, who even becomes town mayor. However her refusal to
oblige his expectations of decency turn love into bitterness. After his death,
she prefers to enjoy 'freedom' again, with cocky outsider 'Tea Cake' as
playmate, and not just at chess. They even face
the risks of seasonal labor.
