Sidney portrays a level of poise within this acting that is so specific and unique to him. So much was said without it being verbalized. I appreciate how straightforward this film is with not only addrsssing the implications of how Tibbs was treated as a Black man in the South doing notable work but also how the social climate impacted the Black southern communities as a whole during this time. It’s also worth noting the amount of risk Poitier took…

The Last Dragon
★★★★ Liked Watched

What I imagine an 80’s Black Martial Arts movie would be like. I enjoyed Leroy’s character and his similarities to Bruce Lee, the iconic scenes were what I expected, and the soundtrack is pretty fire. Laura’s character kinda pissed me off but I get the need for the dramatics lol. Overall a very overtly campy, humorous, feel good movie.
