The Klansman is a 1974 American motion picture drama based on the book of the same name by William Bradford Huie. It recounts what happens to an African American man in a small town in the U.S. south after a young white woman (Linda Evans) is sexually assaulted and beaten. For his 1967 book, William Huie had received death threats and the Ku Klux Klan burned a cross on his front lawn.

Despite the casting of major stars, the film was not well received with considerable rumormongering that Marvin and Burton were both continuously drunk on the set.
