I laughed a lot watching this one. Knowing what it takes to build buildings, I felt his uneasiness to help them. But throughout the movie the plot was obvious that GOD had put them together. Funny movie.
I loved "In the heat of the night" a lot. The "Defiant ones" was also a great movie defining "face to face" clashes of perceived racial pre-judgements.
Only the GREAT Sidney Poitier and his GREAT co-stars could honestly portray what America was truly like in the 60's.
