Really appreciate the fresh dealing of racial coexistence. Last show dealing with holiday movies made me wonder why the films of Sidney Poitier were not mentioned. Timeless, inspirational characters. To Sir with Love inspired me to teach. In the Heat of the Night, one example of a powerful moment is when Sidney’s character introduces himself to a group of white racists “they call me Mr Tibbs”.
I like Denzel a lot, but I’m in awe of Mr. Poitier.
