The Heat
Directed by Paul Feig
Uptight and straight-laced, FBI Special Agent Sarah Ashburn is a methodical investigator with a reputation for excellence--and hyper-arrogance. Shannon Mullins, one of Boston P.D.'s "finest," is foul-mouthed and has a very short fuse, and uses her gut instinct and street smarts to catch the most elusive criminals. Neither has ever had a partner, or a friend for that matter. When these two wildly incompatible law… From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched the 1967 movie, In the Heat of the Night. Stars Sidney Poitier. It was really good. Infuriating, but good.
positive · AI labelView post →i rewatched the movie "In the Heat of the Night" yesterday. I have now moved it up to my top five movies of all time joining movies like Casablanca, The Godfather, The Maltese Falcon, etc. Heat has such great acting, script, and music score.
positive · AI labelView post →Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger rehearsing IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT with director Norman Jewison, born 100 years ago today. The groundbreaking 1967 film earned Jewison his first of three Oscar nominations for Best Director. #FilmSky

neutral · AI labelView post →I produced a TV show called "In The Heat Of The Night" for many years. It was based, of course, on the movie. I do not think this adaptation would have happened today, or any time in the last five or so years. The show would have been deemed DEI propaganda. And maybe it was.

neutral · AI labelView post →Apparently the Italian title for ‘In the Heat of the Night’ translates as ‘The Hot Night of Inspector Tibbs,’ which sounds like a very different kind of movie.

Ranked as 1 of Hollywood's most charismatic stars, he played police chief Bill Gillespie opposite Sidney Poitier in the film In the Heat of the Night (1967) which won him the Oscar for Best Actor.

neutral · AI labelView post →My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 review of IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT boxd.it/bM2eFr While central mystery is fine, social drama endures. Still relevant in 2025...both huge compliment & total bummer. Poitier & Steiger give sharp & multilayered performances in begrudging partnership. #filmsky 📽 Criterion Collection 959
positive · AI labelView post →Btw, if you, like me, are on an Alain Delon kick (RIP king), highly recommend The Sicilian Clan (1969), a heist film, and with its cast, the Heat of its day. World-weary Jean Gabin teaming up with young punk Delon. Topped off with a twangy Ennio Morricone score. Absolute banger.

Black detective & redneck sheriff team to solve murder of wealthy industrialist in backwards Mississippi town. Rewatch. #filmsky 📽

The painting captures the moment that Tibbs pauses, deciding whether to leave or to solve the murder. #art #film #movies #painting #watercolor
neutral · AI labelView post →Books to films 📚=🎞️ In the Heat of the Night (1965) by John Ball was filmed (1967) by N. Jewison. The film is more of an action movie unlike the slow burn detective novel. Tibbs avoids confrontation unlike the more assertive film version. The film is more political in tone. 🥵👮🌃 #filmsky #booksky

neutral · AI labelView post →In just a brief span in the 1960's, Quincy Jones composed the scores for films by Lumet, Pollack, Peckinpah, Yates, and Mazursky, to name just a few. My earliest Quincy Jones film memory was his tense, jazz-infused score for IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT (1967) for Norman Jewison. #filmsky #moviesky 2/

neutral · AI labelView post →The film In The Heat Of The Night is about to show on TV. That film remains so good. (Norman Jewison is one of my favorite directors.) So many brilliant, cool, talented people worked on that film. Hal Ashby edited it, Quincy Jones did the score, Haskell Wexler did the cinematography.
