When I was first considering what to rate this, I said 8, but on watching it again, I, like you, decided to bump it up. It's SO good.siochembiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487373396181856763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4751168318018401735.post-57036919717670164892013-07-05T11:37:13.016-04:002013-07-05T11:37:13.016-04:00Really nice review.

I like hearing what everyone else has to say about a movie, and, like on this occasion, having that neat moment of noticing the same things as someone else.

In a lesser movie, both Tibbs and Gillespie would be 2D and follow a prescribed path. But they don't here. Yes, we know that Tibbs is our moral hero, but I love that even he gets blinded by his prejudices (and, as you note, then overcomes them). It makes everything so much richer, everything feels more real. <br /><br />I didn't mention it here, but there's always the feeling, when I watch a movie as famous as this one, of "will it live up to its own hype?" It's always such a joy to find one that does. siochembiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487373396181856763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4751168318018401735.post-47449284435121931882013-07-01T17:05:52.188-04:002013-07-01T17:05:52.188-04:00The thing about this film that makes me love it (o...The thing about this film that makes me love it (other than the slap--that's friggin' epic) is how smart it is with its development of the plot. The case put before us is really a simple one. The complications arise because of the prejudices of the two leads. They so want their pet theories to be correct that they completely ignore what's staring them in the face.<br /><br />In a lesser film, Virgil Tibbs would have been right all along. In a smart film, we get to see that he has his own prejudices just like everyone else. In a <i>really</i> smart film like this one, Tibbs learns that, too.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4751168318018401735.post-63267935457306409392013-07-01T16:28:29.313-04:002013-07-01T16:28:29.313-04:00That's a fascinating quote.

I know Poitier reprised the role of Virgil Tibbs several times, but I really have trouble imagining any sequel being as potent or effective as this original.siochembiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487373396181856763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4751168318018401735.post-34866433260136863852013-07-01T16:25:05.501-04:002013-07-01T16:25:05.501-04:00Good review.

I agree on both Poitier and Steiger.<br /><br />People of all races will still make assumptions about others based on how they look, skin color included. I remember the Rev. Jesse Jackson, during his campaign to reduce black on black violence, saying that nothing made him sadder than to be walking on a city street at night, hearing footsteps coming up behind him, seeing that it's a white man, and feeling relief.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.com
