      Yes, she was the best of the best, not only in her looks, but in her acting, too. I just hope she knew that.
      I'm just thankful for technology, that captured these movies, which always make it seem like they're still alive. I never think of them as dead. I'm sure in their mind, when they made these films, they knew they were making a timeless classic, that would help the future generations ✌

    This is my favourite Dorothy movie, she played a lovely role here. Sometimes I like to think her life was just like in this movie. That in spite of everything she went through she was a lovely teacher and had a meaningful life. It'd be great if this wasn't a movie and this was just the way she lived. Because Dorothy had such a harsh life.😥😥😥😥😥

    I grew up in the 60s era, a very fun time, in my life. I've just been watching black movies, from that era, not only because it reminds me so much of my childhood years, but also to see if I can catch a glimpse, of something we can apply to the kid's betterment nowadays. I know back in my youth, in the summer times we played all day OUTSIDE. Full of fun, and adventure, and we were healthy. Didn't have fancy toys, we would climb trees, jump ditches, even putting a string on the leg of a June bug, and flying it like a plane, was cool. Even getting the glow end of a lightening bug, and smearing it on our shirts, making the first glow in the dark shirt. We just MADE our fun, and it wasn't ever a dull, boring day.✌

    I taught grades in a private school from pre-k to 7th grade, but I never had a student like CT!
    They were strong willed like him, they even had an air of confidence at a young age, but CT is like an "old soul"!
    A child that thinks like an adult without the emotional development!
    A child born to do "great things"!

    Thank you for uploading this gem. I have it on D.V.D. but it's easier to watch it on RUclips. Dorothy Dandridge's sister Vivian Dandridge makes a brief appearance as a fellow teacher during the faculty meeting. She is the one who says she had C.T in her class last year. This role as the kind, demure school teacher is in complete contrast to Miss Dandride's next movie "Carmen Jones" for which she would win an Oscar nomination. It's hard to believe it's the same actress She is sublime in both films. Also in this movie, both she and Harry Belafonte get to display their vocal talents in song. As an actor, Mr. Belafone is very good in his film debut.
