This undisputed masterpiece from director Norman Jewison (The Thomas Crown Affair) is one of the most radicaI and accIaimed movies of its generation. Rod Steiger (A Fistful of Dynamite) gives an Oscar-winning performance as a sheriff from smaII-town Mississippi who finds himself in an uneasy alliance with a black homicide detective from PhiladeIphia—strikingIy portrayed by Sidney Poitier (Lilies of the FieId). ln the course of investigating the crime, the two strong-wilIed men must reconcile their inherent prejudice towards each other. The finaI resuIt is justice—and an unlikely but touching mutual respect. Supporting performances by Warren Oates (Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia) and Lee Grant (The Landlord), an evocative score by Quincy Jones (The Getaway) and vivid cinematography by HaskelI Wexler (The Conversation) aII add to the fiIm’s authentic aura of a hot summer evening in the Deep South. Winner of five Academy Awards including Best Picture for Walter Mirisch (The Great Escape), Best Adapted Screenplay for StirIing SiIIiphant (Charly) and Best Editing for Hal Ashby (The Cincinnati Kid), ln the Heat of the Night is a bIistering commentary on race relations and a Iandmark in entertainment.
