Tension in the heat-South

The two disadvantaged groups are similar, women and blacks. I really like the feeling of the old south, whether it is Gone with the Wind, or later, regardless of the topic of race, the old-fashioned and melodious feeling, seeking rare coolness in the ordinary heat. The issue of classification of people's origin has finally come to this point. From north and south, to Jews, to Latinos, to Puerto Rican immigrants, and finally to blacks, step by step. Some people are so repulsive of pagans, and some people put faith in the second place when it comes to skin color. It seems that in order to maintain the imaginary world, I have to pick up obsession. The substituting lens is great. The male protagonist is really handsome! !

    Although the rhythm is a bit dull, the suspenseful component is very good. I really like the black actor Sidney Poitier. Adding a little racist thinking to the plot is a characteristic of Hollywood films in this period, and it’s not bad.

    It's actually a racial theme under the hood of crime movies. Of course, the suspense of the case is well set. But after careful consideration, the conclusion was too arbitrary. Although it had long been implied that the murderer was the clerk who came out to fight the flies, I still felt too abrupt when I saw it. What is profound is the slap on the white man's face. The competition for the best film in the same year turned out to be "The Graduate" and "Bonnie and Clyde"...

  • Gillespie: How much they pay you to do their police work?

    Tibbs: A hundred and sixty-two dollars, and thirty-nine cents per week.

    Gillespie: A hundred and sixty-two dollars and thirty-nine cents a week? Well boy! Sam, you take him outside but treat him nice, because a man that makes a hundred and sixty-two dollars and thirty-nine cents a week, we do not want to ruffle him!
