Review of In the Heat of the Night (1967) by Zack F — 16 Jul 2007
When I recommend this to friends, I call it "Blazing Saddles" played straight. An intense movie even now; imagine what a movie with an underlying message that idyllic rural America was full of bigoted assholes provoked at the time.
And yes, Poitier not getting a nomination was ridiculous.
