Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn star as wealthy Californians who consider themselves progressive until their only daughter ( Katharine Houghton) brings home her African American fiancé (Sidney Poitier) in this snapshot of race relations in the late 1960s. The film earned two Academy Awards (for Hepburn's performance and William Rose's screenplay) and eight other nominations. Stanley Kramer directs.

A disaster on all counts -- its time, if it ever had one, has definitely passed. full review

Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader

A most delightfully acted and gracefully entertaining film. full review

Bosley Crowther, New York Times

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Examines its subject matter with perception, depth, insight, humor and feeling full review
