In The Heat of the Night.
Amazing flick which literally blew me away. Being a late 60s flick, it is rooted in the realistic racism of those times, but Poitier and Steiger make us feel as if we stand there ourselves, facing the fidgety heat which hits us like waves.
Wonderful atmosphere, and a great mystery whodunnit to boot. Highly recommended to everyone who loves atmospheric flicks - Fortunato, NE, Rod, Alky, Return, Urge, Newb, Hellfire, Chrono, etc. All of you need to see this one.
