Released three years after Windrush arrived in Tilsbury Docks, film legend Earl
Cameron broke through the colour bar landing a lead role in the gritty melodrama heist
movie Pool of London. Playing a shy, sensitive outsider to his cocky shipmate, Earl
Cameron’s character Danny gets unwittingly involved in a diamond heist gone wrong.
In the midst of noir undertones there’s also the first interracial relationship on screen,
shots of a bustling London from nearly 70 years ago and introspective moments on
race, loneliness, love, friendship and dignity.
