What an actor! To say he broke all color barriers in Hollywood would be an understatement! I loved "In the Heat of the Night" and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner." Even in much later years, he was great in films like "Shoot to Kill." He was always the consummate actor and gentleman. Sidney was 94.

LOVED Sidney Poitier
Never knew anything about the British school system before To Sir, With Love
You guys mix grammar school kids in the same building with high-schoolers ?
BTW, I think the girls burning a used T-pon in the classroom-stove-heater was a bit too much.
Never knew ANY girl that was ever that close to being that much of a pig … Sounds like the work of a male writer
BTW, speaking (and honoring) of Sydney … Last movie I ever seen starring him in the Theatre was him as a cop (1980's movie) searching for a kidnapped Kristy Alley... Forgot the name, but I remember liking itComment
