1967 was a hell of a year; Guess Whos Coming to Dinner, Bonnie and Clyde, The Graduate and In The Heat of the Night
Shamlessly, Sidney Poitier never even got nominated. The irony is too thick to even mention.
This is a must see. I could watch this one ever year or so and happily be shocked at the racial issues that are so brilliantly dipicted here.
Get it, watch it, love it.
Thoughts?
