I'm fairly young (28) and a theology student studying for ministry. Movies are certainly the communicative currency of our time, and are of course a gold mine for sermon illustrations. :) I had heard Sidney Poitier's name spoken with a strange reverence, and I wanted to know why. So I watched Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? and For Love of Ivy. And Hepburn just grabbed me. Sidney did too, but differently. ("Guess..." really appealed to me because I've dabbled in interracial relationships, and I know I'd tend to challenge those barriers without caring what others said.) Anyway, thanks.
