It's also based on the autobiography of E.R. Braithwaite, a black man from British Guyana. It always bugs me when I hear the comedy bit by Bill Burr talking about a "how many times are they going to re-make this movie...white person goes to help black kids at a troubled school", and he doesn't point out (and most commenters don't seem to know) that the original movie was the other way around.
@RobertC44583 жыл бұрын
@@MrVvulf Actually, the "white person goes too help black kids at a troubled school" trope - in books, stage plays, or movies - is OLDER than E.R. Braithwaite's brilliant, Pulitzer Prize- winning 1959 novel OR the 1967 movie 'To Sir, with Love.' For example: and ironically, it was Sidney Poitier [ who played the teacher ( the Braithwaite character ) in the 1967 film adaptation of Braithwaite's novel ] playing the "troubled black youth" in the 1955 "white person goes too help black kids at a troubled school" movie 'Blackboard Jungle.' But - Braithwaite, and later the 1967 movie, did manage to make it "the other way around" ( based on Braithwaite's experiences teaching. )
@MrVvulf3 жыл бұрын
@@RobertC4458 Thanks Robert, I had forgotten about that movie. But the tone of that movie is quite a bit bleaker and pessimistic than "To Sir, with Love" and the various remake iterations which have followed. "Blackboard Jungle" is more mature and violent, but I always felt it reached for too many rings and wasn't really able to grasp any of them. But your point is well taken.

"To Sir with Love," was such an amazing movie. You should watch it whenever you get a chance. Sidney Poitier such a class act. He received the best actor Oscar in 1964 for his role in "Lillies of the Field." Another terrific movie. Both movies were ground breaking at the time. They dealt with dealing with people based on mutual respect,. The need to look past a person's race, religious faith, ethnicity and seeing their hearts.

She's singing about the most gorgeous black man on the planet, Sidney Poitier. I loved this movie, and we all totally fell in love with him in the early Sixties. Please watch his hit movies, "To Sir with Love", "Lillies of the Field", "A Patch of Blue" (they walked by my Dad's restaurant "Biffs" at 7th and Alvarado in LA. It was right across from MacArthur Park), "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" Read his autobiography. I should read it again, so good! He and Harry Belafonte were friends in competition. Both became huge stars in the early Sixties. Sidney wanted to be an actor and was told his Island accent was too thick, so he listened to the radio and changed his speech himself.

Yea Poitier is the "sir" she is referring to, since that's what they called him. It's a great movie, and the graduation scene in the end where the actress sings this song to him really tugs on the ole heartstrings.

Another great singer of that era was Mary Hopkin. She had a big hit called "Those Were the Days."

This song is from the movie, To Sir, with Love (1967). Its about teenage angst. You need to see the movie. Simply awesome with the accomplished, talent black actor Mr. Sidney Poitier.

Brilliant song for a brilliant film about a teacher who inspires he’s inner city students. The students have been brought up with poverty and domestic violence. (Another good film similar to this is “Please Sir”) Sidney Poitier is also in another brilliant film called “Guess who’s coming for dinner”

I wrote, and deleted, and wrote, and deleted many comments about this video. I'm old. I just ask you to please watch "To Sir With Love" and consider the time it was and how important films like this were.

She was married to one of the Bee Gees. Was it Maurice? They later divorced. I love the song,(Oh Me, Oh My) I'm a Fool For You Baby sung by her. (And also B.J. Thomas).

Oh yeah, I'd love to hear some B.J. Thomas... starting with "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" or "Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song"

Lulu was Maurice Gibb's first wife. They married very young and divorced but remained friends for the rest of their lives. She sang this to her teacher (in a movie), Sidney Poitier.
