Am I the only one who's never been a big Sidney Poitier fan?

You have to see him in the right movie. Yes, he's as unbearable as Gregory Peck at his sanctimonious worst in "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?", but he's fine in "Let's Do It Again" with Bill Cosby, John Amos and Jimmy "J.J." Walker. He was also properly cast in "Lilies of the Field".

Sidney Poitier was good in the Defiant Ones, but Tony Curtis really was the bomb.
