That’s the part that dates it. Hepburn in a younger self would have matched Poitier, but they figured they needed a wide eyed hippie for him to fall in love with. Love Weezy in it too. |

I NEED AN IMMEDIATE REACTION!! I'm probably predisposed to find it interesting because my wife is not from my drunken Irish culture but I legit think it's a movie worth seeing. |

I think it can be universally be accepted as a film about parents’ apprehension about their kids rushing into relationships in general too. He didn’t have to be black for there to be a conflict. A sunny, floptop surfer white boy could have just as easily been pre-judged by the parents. |

It could have been a timeless piece but they felt the need to infuse hippie-culture into the movie, presumably to make it more marketable, I get it. But, it just takes you out of the movie at different points - milkman, the ice cream drive-up, Joanna..... |

Maybe I hate this movie.........I don't. It does have problems, though. I still go back to Poitier falling in love with this inexperienced young person in, whatever it was - 12 days. It makes you question his judgment but the whole movie is that you should not question his judgment. |

It’s believable enough that he wanted to recapture his youth, with the young love. He lost his first wife, tragically. I think they thought too much of Joanna though. The filmmakers. She was bad. His heart was pure. |

Rewatching now. Starz Online which we have because of that pornographic Outlander show. Damn! Poitier’s wife and kid died tragically also. I forgot about that. |

Katie looks like she’s crying in every scene of this movie. She must have been an emotional wreck on set. |

Spencer was dying. To her death she never watched the final reel of the film, it was too painful for her. |

Enjoying an old fashioned home-made tonight. Started a new job and lasted 4 days before getting accused of sexual harassment. Apparently saying the word secretary was a "trigger". Back at my old job. Never burn bridges. Ever. |
