"Sounder" is a 1972 film starring Cicely Tyson, Paul Winfield, Kevin Hooks, Carmen Mathews, Taj Mahal, and Eric Hooks. It was adapted by Lonne Elder III and directed by Martin Ritt from the 1970 Newbery Medal-winning novel "Sounder" by William H. Armstrong and spawned a sequel, "Part 2, Sounder" (1976).

The most distinct difference between the film and the book is that the film established names for the characters, which the book did not.

In 2003, ABC's Wonderful World of Disney aired a new film adaptation, reuniting two actors from the original. Kevin Hooks directed and Paul Winfield played the role of the teacher. (Winfield and Hooks played father and son, respectively, in the original version.)
