This film still holds it own after 40 years.
I saw this film when I was a teenager and I still remember feeling the heat of the night oozing from the big screen. The acting is so perfect – a Rod Steiger tour-de-force! (A must for all directors and actors to watch.)

I have seen that film too, and I really liked it. everything was perfect, the screen play, mis en scenes( what is it called in English?!) , photography and the acting (both Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger).
Even though the film has a “Happy Ending” but it leaves pain and I think this is Sidney Poitier’s acting that makes such a feeling.
