    My Favorite KH & ST Collaboration...

    In addition to the performances of the three superstars Hepburn, Tracy and Poitier, the others are quite ordinary. Reflecting the sharp contradiction of racial conflict, it is not as ups and downs and fascinating as the similar family ethics film "Golden...

    Or about racism in America, a love story between blacks and whites. Three legendary movie stars play against each other. But what moved me the most was K Hepburn and Tracy. Their 30-year love history has long been a legend in Hollywood. The ice cream scene, what K Hepburn said to Tracy, and the ending of Tracy Confession is completely a true portrayal of their legend....

    There is a daughter at home who understands this more and more. The character setting of the young couple deliberately caters to the theme of the story, which is a bit pricey. Hepburn and Tracy did a great...

    1. The last big family conversation was brilliant, with climaxes one after another, and each section was more beautiful than the other. 2. One more star for two great old actors, nine couples on the screen, and acquaintances in life. 3. The dialogue between father and son is quite philosophical in life. What the mother-in-law said to her husband will make many men think! May the perception and passion for love endure in the dullness of...

    The opening and closing songs are so good. Hepburn and Tracy are so good together, I feel very sad to think that Tracy died two weeks later, and Hepburn lived to 2003 by himself. The film follows the rule of three, the actors are all great acting, and the dialogue is not bad. The only shortcoming is that the constant exchange of dialogue between the two at the end is a bit long-winded and forced to move out of humanitarianism. Tracy's final speech represents the final decision on whether the...

    Spencer's posthumous work + the background of Martin Luther King's era + the future significance of black and white marriage, so you can enter AFI100, the final speech is really touching, making this meal not ordinary at all - the theme song is a famous song in the 1930s. This 1940s backstage and behind-the-scenes couple reunited 20 years later and sent a dirge. They felt like they were the real melody. Compared with their Glory Love, the theme of the film was suddenly...

    The subject matter of this film now seems a bit grandiose, and some plots seem a little inhumane. Through the intermarriage of blacks and whites, this film reveals a long-standing and extremely sensitive social problem in American society. The complex emotions of the characters are expressed in a very fresh, smooth and harmonious way. The director uses meticulous techniques to depict the inner psychological conflicts of the...

    20201220 As one of the most talked about black films in American film history, this film is undoubtedly the "crystallization" of a stretch of time, which fully confirms how various progressive and conservative discourses can be used in a pair of interracial lovers. , and even Sidney Poitier alone takes place and completes complex encounters and couplings. But the movie is first and foremost a culmination of the Hollywood industry: almost every two people have dramatic tension, almost every relat

    Sidney Poitier is the perfect dream for white liberals anxious to have a colored man in for lunch or dinner. First interracial...

    Guess who is coming for dinner

    First of all, I have to say that this is a very ideal situation. Although it is normal to have emotions, both parents are quite rational people. They are not stubborn parents who can't listen to anything. This is a very important foundation, whether it is in the last century or this century,...

    When the hell are we gonna get some dinner?

    The story told in this film may seem to be just a bloody bridge today: black and white matching + Lolita (the heroine is 23 years old, the male protagonist is 36 years old) + flash marriage; but in the 1960s Against the background, the forward consciousness of the film is undoubtedly worthy of...

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner quotes

  • Joanna Drayton: He thinks you're gonna faint because he's a Negro.

    Christina Drayton: Well... I don't think I'm going to faint, but I'll sit down anyway.

  • Christina Drayton: [to her assistant, Hilary, in the driveway] Now I have some instructions for you. I want you to go straight back to the gallery - Start your motor - When you get to the gallery tell Jennifer that she will be looking after things temporarily, she's to give me a ring if there's anything she can't deal with herself. Then go into the office, and make out a check, for "cash," for the sum of $5,000. Then carefully, but carefully Hilary, remove absolutely everything that might subsequently remind me that you had ever been there, including that yellow thing with the blue bulbs which you have such an affection for. Then take the check, for $5,000, which I feel you deserve, and get - permanently - lost. It's not that I don't want to know you, Hilary - although I don't - it's just that I'm afraid we're not really the sort of people that you can afford to be associated with.

    [Hilary opens her mouth to say something]

    Christina Drayton: Don't speak, Hilary, just... go.
