What was the one that took place in Jamaica? Keith Foote. He did a couple of other low-rent movies. He was married to a beautiful white woman, which was even more shocking in the early sixties.

My wife and I traveled to Jamaica several years ago, and we asked about him. It was very weird...everyone knew where he was. Even the concierge at our hotel..."Oh, Mistah Foote, he be in Kingston today!" Even our bus driver knew where he was. I suddenly realized maybe I don't want to know where be Mistah Foote. Dad is dead, so many questions left unanswered.
