Rosewood boasts two black men who, although respectful almost to a fault, are no Stepin Fetchits either. Rosewood 's black knight is the film's one thoroughly fictionalized character. Like Eastwood's taciturn cowboy, Mann has a mysterious past, and that hangman's necklace from which he somehow escaped surely must have been nicked from Hang 'Em High. Caught between the good ol' boys bloodlust, his greed and his conscience, he rather belatedly decides to do the right thing. History hurts, but sometimes its cathartic effect is necessary to move forward.
Rosewood is a good beginning.
