    During a time of heavy racism, war, and political chaos, this movie came at the right time---with the message of love and peace. One of my all time favorites. RIP Sir.

      This is one of my all time favourites. I had such a crush on Mr.Pointier. I loved all his movies. I didn’t know about racism it was not in my vocabulary . Still isn’t. I don’t care if people are pink. White Black or Brown. Or whatever colour my family didn’t grow up this way. People are people for who they are . I wish we were all like this . What a better world it would be . RIP Sir .

It has been a lifelong wish to meet you and tell you all this but it was not to be. Goodbye dearest Sidney .....goodbye ..and thank you for the pleasure and warmth you gave us. Goodbye. They don't make them like you anymore. Love from India.

    I moved from MPLS to Dallas when was 12. We were poor but not ignorant, strong parents, never saw racism before that and it shocked and sickened me.
    When this film came out I was 14 and it changed my life or rather it reinforced what my parents taught but did not see much of in the streets..Class. self respect and own it.
    I love to this day Sir. I cry everytime I hear LuLu sing to him and the film was one of the first I bought on VCR. This never gets old. It is a lesson teachers are not allowed to teach now days without parents getting in the way defending low level behaviour. Thank you Sir.

    I remember watching this as a young tween at the local theater in my small hometown in Indiana, back in the sixties. First movie I ever saw Sidney Poitier in. He was mesmerizing to me. I cheered at the end of the movie when he tore up that job offer he had waited so long to get knowing he was better suited for the job of changing the lives of inner-city kids. I think I saw every movie he was in after seeing this one. What a talent he was.

It just goes to show how you can do what's best when you're a teacher. Sidney, all the other people in the movie 🎥 were ,are simply fantastic ! I love the music, movie, I would watch it over again.

      Your knowledge of the English language is lacking
      One is the Cardinal number
      One is alive
      One is unique
      -- The has never been one like you before you were born
      And there will never be one like you after you die.
      This should be obvious and logical to you - but you are not thinking
      Somebody/everybody is the same:
      Rotten and stinking after four days and found buried with
      all the other bodies in the cemetery
