Very good actor, as Commander Wallace said a trailblazer, a staunch fighter against racism not only in films, ambassador, knighted by the Queen in 1974.
"In the heat of the night" was a masterpiece, while i also liked a lot of his other films this one, "The defiant ones" and "Shoot to kill" are my favourites.
Rest in peace Mr Poitier.

Never forget near the end:
Don't worry Commodore, the Bedford will never fire first, but if he fires one I'll fire one . . .
FIRE ONE!!
