Odds Against Tomorrow
Wise's films often included lessons on racial tolerance. For example, Native Americans, Muslims, and African Americans were featured in such films as "Two Flags West" (1950), "This Could Be the Night" (1957), "The Set-Up" (1949) and "Odds Against Tomorrow" (1959). "The Sand Pebbles" (1966) featured the story of a biracial couple, and Jewish characters were included in "Somebody Up There Likes Me" (1956), "The Day the Earth Stood Still" (1951), and "The House on Telegraph Hill" (1951).
