Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?
(Drama, 1967)

Starring: Katherine Hepburn, Spencer Tracy, and Sidney Poitier

I have been interested in seeing this movie ever since Janet Jackson recommended it on that 100 Classic Romance movie television show. It was interesting to note  the racist comments, but this is 1967. The Civil Rights Act has just been

 passed. Black Power is in, and things are not as politically correct as they are today. I was interested to hear the Black maid yell at her Black comrade for attempting to ruin her employer's daughter.

Discrimination that must be experienced by an interracial couple must have been extremely difficult at that time, but it can be done. Of course, the relationship  between interracial couples has become easier with time, but we must remember that with love, anything is possible. Good movie! :-)
