This week, Morgan and Gavia celebrate the life and work of the late Sidney Poitier by diving into his greatest film, Norman Jewison's Academy Award-winning In the Heat of the Night. Poitier stars as a Black, northern detective who is waylaid in a small southern town by a homicide investigation in which he becomes entangled; Rod Steiger co-stars as the town's racist white sheriff. Topics include the film's complicated production history and Academy Awards success, its place in Poitier's career, Steiger's Method performance, and more.
