After his recent passing, to commemorate the trailblazing screen icon that was Sidney Poitier, we are screening one of his hits that has been hugely influential over the last 50 years, most recently inspiring (in part) the phenomenom that was GET OUT. After a 10-day Hawaiian vacation, Joanna Drayton (Katharine Houghton) returns to her San Francisco home with John Prentice (Sidney Poitier), her brand-new fiancé. Although he's a successful doctor and a Nobel Prize candidate, her parents, Christina (Katharine Hepburn) and Matthew (Spencer Tracy), are taken aback when they discover John is black.
