Wonderful movie You're welcome. I wanted to have something else from him listed here besides "In the Heat of the Night". I considered "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner?" or "Blackboard Jungle", but I felt this scene was just right. It took me awhile to appreciate "Lillies of the Field". My mom loved this movie, and as a kid I was bored with it at first, but it grew on me as I got older. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Sidney Poitier stared in one of Hollywood's greatest comedies of the 90s, 1997's "The Jackal". The casting agent must have been so high he/she could touch the sun putting together this movie. In this comedy, Richard Gere has an IRA guy with terrible Irish accent, Bruce Willis plays a gay hitman from some foreign country with terrible accent. Jack Black has a small role as a weapons specialist. Sidney Poitier plays himself, looking bewildered, wondering what he signed up for.
