Rating: 5.0
A true Classic
"But Daddy where is the color?" I watched this movie the first time in 1963, and being a guy I really wasn't suposed to like it. I was 16 at the time and it was the first time that I have seen Sidney Poitier or any black actor in a serious role. Plus this was in Europe. We had no idea about the segregation in the USA. In the mean time whenever I feel a bit in the dump I look at this movie again. Anyway I got 2 teenagers girls 12 and boy 17 and this movie got them away from MTV and the cartoon channel and afterwards they where singing "Amen" making up there own bible verse lyrik along the way. Excellent acting and still capturing Generations
