Movie Reviews of In the Heat of the Night
Movie Review: In the Heat of the Night
Summary: 5 Stars
Intense action drama boasts a tight script and a pair of explosive lead performances by Poitier and Steiger. "Heat" netted Oscars in most top categories that year- Picture, Actor (Steiger), Screenplay and Editing. And though Steiger won the award, its just as much Poitier's movie. Director Jewison makes palpable racial ignorance and poverty long ingrained in the Deep South.Movie Review: Cross-generational film
Summary: 5 Stars
A good indication of how "timeless" this film is; it's very big with my 27 year old son and his group. They refer to Poitier as the "Denzel of the 60's". An aspect of film that I've always found interesting is the attention to detail the Director adds to the screen. Look for Gillespie drinking Dr. Pepper. Back then that particular soda was only available in Dixie.Movie Review: A great movie you can watch again and again
Summary: 5 Stars
All the classic elements, and some touchy subjects, (black and white relations in a small southern town) but acting from Rod Steiger and Sidney Poitier make anything else irrelevent.Get your popcorn and drink, sit back, unhook the phone, and savor this tremendous film.
And not to worry, you'll feel real good when it's over.
Movie Review: Poitier educates a southern sheriff
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a great movie. It is a bit dated now, in the light of improvements in racial relations in the south, but north and south still have a way to go. Magnificently acted by Poitier and Steiger. But for Poitier's career, I doubt if there would be an African-American running for president of the U. S. today.Movie Review: SIDNEY POITIER & ROD STEIGER AT THEIR BEST
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie was filmed a lot at night - 1st you have one suspect, then twists & it's a different, goes on & on. Will not give anymore away.......you must see. We have on VHS & DVD....TheDVD looks like it was made today. Excellent movie! We highly
recommend.
