Always wondered what the rest of that chick looked like since it's obviously not Camille Keaton.

This poster is pretty cool. But it would never be used today.

Here's the IMDB link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067214/

Unfortunately, I don't have access to an image of the poster, which showed a white guy and a black girl together. The film was about an interracial romance. The girl was played by gorgeous Brenda Sykes (MANDINGO, DRUM).

Forgot to mention the "rape-art" at the bottom of the poster
