CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Tibbs (Sidney Poitier) defends himself against a racist Gillespie (Rod Steiger) while Mrs. Colbert (Lee Grant) grieves her late husband.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
The winner of the 1967 Oscar for Best Picture (as well as four other Oscars), In the Heat of the Night is set in a small Mississippi town where an unusual murder has been committed. Rod Steiger plays sheriff Bill Gillespie, a good lawman despite his racial prejudices. When Virgil Tibbs (Sidney Poitier), a well-dressed northern African-American, comes to town, Gillespie instinctively puts him under arrest as a murder suspect. Tibbs reveals himself to be a Philadelphia police detective; after he and Gillespie come to a grudging understanding of one another, Tibbs offers to help in Gillespie's investigation. As the case progresses, both Gillespie and Tibbs betray a tendency to jump to culture-dictated conclusions. Still, the case is solved thanks to the informal teamwork of the two law officers. Based on the novel by John Ball, In the Heat of the Night inspired two sequels, both starring Poiter as Virgil Tibbs. In 1987, a TV series version of In the Heat of the Night appeared, with Carroll O'Connor as Gillespie and Howard Rollins as Tibbs.

It is amazing to watch Sidney Poitier's face after the insult. After his righteously angry retort, "They call me Mr. Tibbs" you can see hurt, and then he regains his composure and asserts himself with a commanding presence. Those few seconds speak volumes. What a great actor.

In this scene, Tibbs and Gillespie look right past her, as if she wasn't even there. Gillespie, obviously, feels threatened by Tibbs. Gibbs' intelligence and composure fill the room. They butt heads w/Gillespie's fear. Grant's character, quite rightly, is appalled that a turf war and animosity are overshadowing her husband's murder and its probe. "My God! What kind of people are you? What kind of a place is this?" she asks, stunned. "My husband is dead!" Why the hell are you letting prejudice get ahead of procedure, she wonders aloud -- in so many words. A great scene.

Sidney Poitier is one of the greatest movie stars ever. I'll put his career up there with best - John Wayne, Gary Cooper, Cary Grant, etc... for what he achieved being a black man in those times is nothing short of amazing. In The Heat of the Night, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, The Defiant Ones, To Sir With Love, Lilies of the field, etc. Was a top 10 Box office star from 1967-1969, and the undisputed box office star in 1968. Won an academy award for best actor in 1963. Worked with Katie Hepburn, Spencer Tracey, Paul Newman, Tony Curtis, Richard Widmark, and Glenn Ford without ever looking weak. What a Legend! And even from a style perspective, wouldn't look out of place amongst Cary Grant, Paul Newman, and Robert Redford...

For me, "They call me Mr. Tibbs," is one of the top five lines in the cinematic genre in my lifetime, right up there with, "Dyin ain't much of a living boy." I remember reading an interview he gave many years ago where he talked about coming to this country with nothing and walking into his first audition with no experience and landing the gig. He was very humble, admitting he had no great plan to become a movie star, he was just looking for a job that would put some food on his plate. as an immigrant myself that struck a chord with me.

When my professor in college showed this film to me and the other students in his History of Pop culture course, I was amazed with the acting, the story, and the tension in the movie, this was back in 2020; I’m sad that the late actor , Sidney Poitier, passed away a year after I found one of the films he played in are one of the best. Rest In Power and Peace, Sidney Poitier.

The way he says ‘they call me mr. Tibbs’ just makes it one hell of a one liner

every time in this movie, when in comes to a point of fact or order, the Sheriff gets outsmarted by Virgil. Every time.

It's extra frustrating for Gillespie because you can tell he's used to being the smartest guy in the room.

And Poitier’s performance did NOT win an award for this?

@scottishjedi1522 3 года назад

Poitier wasn’t even nominated. This was after he had already won an Oscar, so it’s possible that’s why. But Rod Steiger won the Oscar that year for the role of the police chief.

I was 5 years old when this movie and "Guess who"s coming to dinner" came out, my father was black and mother was white, needless to say Sidney Poitier played a prominent role in our home.

I once heard someone call this film forgettable. If they want to miss out on great cinema, let them.

Anyone who thinks this masterpiece isn't special just doesn't understand the term greatness

And, yeah, a Canadian directors take on the Deep South. Norman Jewison - legend.

@RDASoccer 5 лет назад

I think it took an outsider, this time a Canadian, to really be able to tell the real story without any bias. Jewison is a legend. 1984's A Soldiers Story is another excellent example of how good he was at telling this story.

That is because Canadians are good people and don't have the same racial handicaps

What an actor, to infuse one line with so much dignity, indignation, generational pain. Amazing scene.

“They call me Mr. Tibbs!!!” You tell ‘em!!RIP Sidney Poitier. This is a classic and will be passed down for generations. He will be missed! What a talented man.

I've got little to add. There's more in this 2:30 then in all MCU movies combined. Films used to matter, people used to matter -- thank you, Mr. Poitier, for reminding us of that and for so much more. RIP.
