Gentleman's Agreement

An original approach to the problem of anti-semitism -- a deliberate creation of circumstances which would provoke and provide spontaneous reactions in normal intercourse. Journalist Philip Green has just moved to New York City from California when the Third Reich falls. To mark this moment in history, his editor at Smith's Weekly Magazine assigns Phil a series of articles on anti-Semitism in America. Phil, a Christian, decides to adopt a Jewish identity in order to experience first-hand all the slurs, the slights, the veiled, and open insults, the discrimination, the little things that make up the big whole that is the essence of anti-semitism. He finds it everywhere, even in the woman he loves, and what he discovers about this rampant bigotry in America will change him forever.
