To say that Sidney Poitier was a towering figure not only in Hollywood but in the very fabric of our country is a vast understatement. At one time he wasn't simply the most important African American movie star. He was the only African American movie star. John and Steve take some time to talk about his life and his incredible career before re-releasing their conversation on one of his most important films, In the Heat of the Night.  Don’t forget to support The Cine-Files at https://www.patreon.com/TheCineFiles and purchase any film we feature at https://www.cine-files.net Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCineFilesPod/?ref=bookmarks John @therochasays Steve @srmorris The Cine-Files Twitter @cine_files Instagram thecinefilespodcast --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecine-files/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecine-files/supportOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/CINEFILES* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code CINEFILES for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Check out Washington Red Raspberries: https://redrazz.orgSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-cine-files/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on The Cine-Files we honor one of the most important composers and artists of the last century, Stephen Sondheim, by revisiting a conversation on the musical that brought him international attention, West Side Story for which he did the lyrics. This is one of our favorite conversations and we couldn't revisit this iconic film without inviting our guests, Milena Govich and David Cornue back to the microphone to put the life and work of Stephen Sondheim into perspective. This was a wonderful conversation. In fact, it was so good that we didn't want it to end. So, stay tuned Cine-Files for a much longer exploration of the man who changed musical theater forever, Stephen Sondheim. If you haven't seen this incredible film you can buy or stream it right here.https://amzn.to/3ECU6gpDon’t forget to support The Cine-Files at https://www.patreon.com/TheCineFiles and purchase any film we feature at https://www.cine-files.netFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCineFilesPod/?ref=bookmarksJohn @therochasaysSteve @srmorrisThe Cine-FilesTwitter @cine_filesInstagram thecinefilespodcast--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecine-files/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecine-files/supportOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/CINEFILES* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code CINEFILES for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Check out Washington Red Raspberries: https://redrazz.orgSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-cine-files/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
