"They call me Mr. Tibbs!"

That I’ve been wanting to watch. “A Warm December”. It’s a different version of the earlier “Roman Holiday” set in England rather than Italy. Sidney directed the movie himself and it centers around dirt bikes (my interest) rather than scootering about on a Vespa.

I remember Mr. Tibbs and the racial tension made me nervous. It was a powerful movie with outstanding acting. Myself, living in the south in the 1960’s, I experienced true racism first hand. I was shocked and very sad seeing how some humans could be so cruel to others. Their reasons were valid to themselves but sure escaped me. I vowed never to be that way, even as a little boy.
