   • In The Heat Of Night is a **** and revealing showdown iterated in a night whose discectomy is just pleasingly ingenious to encounter Sidney Poitier is cool. This is a well put together mystery as well. It gets a little messy weaving in some the side plots but has a satisfying resolution.

   Is in the heat of the night a racial film?

   • Nowadays, some people might assume that films like "In The Heat Of The Night" are just about racial prejudice. However, to see it only as a race film does the movie an injustice, as it's much, much more. Not only is the acting exceptional, but the movie is a great film on police forensics.

   In the Heat of the Night was released in 1967 and tells a story set in Mississippi, so racism is naturally its focus. Both Rod Steiger and Sydney Poitier did a great job showing how, despite history and prejudice, blacks and whites can indeed work together and appreciate the humanity of one another.
