A good movie but if I was the Black Doctor I would have not worried about an autopsy when everyone else was convince that he did not murder the guy's brother
If I could do a remake of this film, I would have the white woman grab the gun and kill the bigot. But a doctor would not have allowed that. Because you know, the difficulty of being a doctor is to help someone regardless of colour even if that person is a bigot.
That's a sad statement. If you think that way... it will be true. You are what you project. You can turn anything around. Change YOUR thoughts/ change your reality. Trust me.. and good luck!
What an ignorant statement. Your premise is simply untrue. Conservative does NOT equate to anything about race. It's about small government and fiscal responsibility. Why did you make it about race? hmmmm?! BTW; This is my favorite movie of all time, and my favorite line is Sidney giving his dad the what-for.
I could watch this movie over and over and over again and again and again... I think it's one of the best films ever made, and each actor is absolutely brilliant.
And who'da thunk that he'd be in charge of the War on Whistleblowers, drone assassinations of (Muslim) American citizens without due process and veiled giveaways to Wall Street. Hope and Change!
No my friend, you are wrong in your interpretation. Let me explain it to you from a black person's perspective. The maid had an attitude many blacks had at the time...she felt that Poitier was living 'above' himself by marrying a white woman. It is a subtle form of prejudice that still exists among some black people. If you are not an American black it would be difficult to see and understand. But that's it. Has absolutely nothing to do with the fact the the maid raised her.
People always say that mankind isn't accomplishing anything in this world or improving himself at all. I always hear people say that we not only aren't getting any better as far as kindness and being more Godly, but that we are getting even worse. Maybe that's true, I don't know. But when you watch this movie you can certainly see at least one way that people have gotten better. They're definitely more accepting and open minded, and maybe at least a little less racist.
This is the most beautiful love story movie I have ever seen. Too bad this will never happen to me in real life because no woman (regardless of race) wants to be with me.
