Chambermaid Minnie (Cora Green) marries wealthy Dollar Bill (Buddy Harris) - much to the dismay of her daughter Sue (Izinetta Wilcox), because Dollar Bill is also lusting after her, and apart from that she also distrusts the man. And she should too, because Dollar Bill is secretly a mobster, running an extortion racket, exactly the thing Sue's boyfriend Bob (Earl Gough) crusades against ...

Eventually, Minnie has to realize she can't pay the tuition for Sue's school for this year, but Dollar Bill agrees to help out. Reluctantly Sue accepts his money ... but in return, he tries to get into her pants, and when they are both caught by Minnie, he is quick to put the blame on Sue - and Minnie believes him and throws her own daughter out of ehr appartment. Desperate to earn her tuition herself, Sue becomes a showgirl and a singer, and quite a success.

Back home, Dollar Bill, is confronted by some of his rivals, and eventually someone draws a gun - and kills Minnie, who just happens to be in harm's way and catches a bullet meant for her husband ... At the funeral, Sue blames herself for her mother's death, only now realizing that she should have reconciled with her mother long ago. Dollar Bill meanwhile gets into another gunfight, only this time he is less lucky and gets bumped off ...

An all-black gangster drama that, like all all-black movies of its time, was made on a shoestring. Still director Edgar G.Ulmer uses quite a few tricks he has learned during the years of making Bs to make the film look bigger than it actually is, and he is helped by a better than usual script that gives the tried-and-true gangster story a political subtext that even dares to espose the black gangsters as mere contractees of the white mob.

Certainly, Moon over Harlem is far from being a great film, but it's not without its points of interest.
