Veiled Aristocrats

''Veiled Aristocrats'' is a 1932 American Pre-Code race film directed, written, produced and distributed by Oscar Micheaux. The film deals with the theme of "passing" by mixed-race African Americans to avoid racial discrimination, and is a remake of ''The House Behind the Cedars'' (1927), based on a novel by the same name published in 1900 by Charles W. Chesnutt.
==Plot==
John Walden, a light-skinned African American lawyer, returns to his family in North Carolina after being away for 20 years. Walden has passed as white and been successful. He discovers domestic turmoil: his mother is trying to dissuade his sister Rena, who is also light skinned, from being romantically involved with Frank Fowler (Carl Mahon), a dark-skinned African-American businessman. With his mother’s blessing, Walden suggest that Rena abandon Fowler and move with him to another part of the city, where she could pass for white.
After Rena reluctantly agrees, her brother sets her up in a fancy home with African-American servants, who are initially unaware of Rena's African ancestry. Rena is pursued by a white high-class man who proposes marriage. Becoming uncomfortable with the situation, Rena tells her brother that she is a "negress" and is "tired of being a liar and a cheat". Rena reunites with Frank and they elope.〔(Alan Gevinson, ''Within Our Gates: Ethnicity in American Feature Films, 1911-1960'' ), University of California Press, 1997, ISBN 0-520-20964-8〕〔(Richard Corliss, “An Oscar for Micheaux” ), ''Time'' Magazine, June 6, 2002〕
