"Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" is on TCM now.
Movie came out in 1967. What a difference 41 years make!

5. It's about class as much as race. I can't believe Rich hadn't seen it in 30+ years.
Great movie!

6. I keep thinking of Poitier's
character's line,.. "She thinks every one of our children should grow up to be President of The United States!"...and another great one, "You think of yourself as a black man, I think of myself as a man."( or something like that.)

Poitier ...! He had a certain magic about him.

8. Just watch Hepburn when Tracy is giving his powerful monolouge
about how he isn't so old that he can't remember the love he felt for her.
