Overview

The film "Fate" was based on the true story of Clara Smith Hamon, who murdered her Oklahoma millionaire oilman boyfriend, Jake Hamon. Clara was acquitted of the charges, began a love affair with John Gorman, the president of Gorman pictures, and starred in the film version of her own story, fulfilling her lifelong dream of being a movie star. A country-wide protest, however, quashed her dreams, and all copies of the film were burned, leaving only a still shot to mark it's former existence.
