Many might have heard of the passing of the Giant Sidney Poitier.. ..I'm posting the full film No Way Out 1950..this is the very 1st film I remember seeing a Black Man in; I must have been around 5 or 6 when I saw this with my Mom & Dad...Back in the day before television became the main source of entertainment in American homes people went to the movies we went 2 or 3 times a week ; now I only remember bit's & parts. of this film..but I never forgot Sidney Poitier in his white coat..he made a big impression on my very young mind in 1950..Now I'm sure each one of us have a favorite film with Sidney Poitier if old enough.. but for me, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner was not one of them nor Lillie's Of The Field ..but over the years I've warmed up to this film some what.. No Way Out even by today's standards has a Big Bunch ..This was Sidney's 1st real big role..even though Richard Widmarck has top billing
But for me it will always be Sidney Poitier film..this is living history for me because it captures the climate that my parents lived in & which I was born in at that time in America. So I hope some of you check out this film because it will give you some insights into the time period
