      It's my favorite movie. The chemistry between Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger was magic. Two different police officers from different parts of the country. Sidney Poitier was the big city cop and Rod Steiger was the chief of a small town in the deep South.

      @@frankdenardo8684 Oh I know (actually, I didn't know he did F.I.S.T.). Reason why I took notice of that was because when I watched Solder's Story back when I was a kid in the theater, I couldn't help but notice parallels between the relationship between Howard E. Rollins and Dennis Lipscomb playing the two main Black and White officers and Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger in Heat of the Night.

      @NoPawn Sylvester Stallone starred in F.I.S.T. as a union organizer named Johnny Kovak. Although the movie is fictitious, it was loosely based on Jimmy Hoffa, who was involved with the Teamsters Union. Kovak, like Hoffa, was in cahoots with the Mafia.

    I feel a lot of people don't know about this but there was a 1973 film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's concept musical "Jesus Christ Superstar" with Jewison as the director. And it was a very interesting adaptation to say the least.
    RIP Norman.

      I dunno, it sucked? But seriously, in the 46th Academy Awards he wasn't even nominated for Best Director and given the nominees that year I'm not surprised: George Roy Hill(winner) - The Sting, George Lucas - American Graffiti, Ingmar Bergman - Cries and Whispers, William Friedkin - The Exorcist, Bernardo Bertolucci - Last Tango in Paris

      As would happen years later with The Hurricane, there was an open & active campaign against it, a gentile journalist claimed the source material was antisemitic, despite the fact that Golda Meir was a fan of Jewison's work, even the Russians enjoyed his comedy about them & during the Cold War!

    Oh no.
    Another awesome legendary filmmaker gone now.
    I can't believe he's no longer with us.
    He was one of the most terrific directors there ever was.
    Yet, in our current times, he was extremely underappreciated and overlooked.
    RIP Norman.
    You made exceptional motion pictures that are outstanding and surpasses the current bulk of shoddy crap being churned out by the studios today.
    "In The Heat Of The Night," "A Soldier's Story," "The Thomas Crown Affair," "Rollerball," "The Russians Are Coming...The Russians Are Coming," "The Hurricane," "....And Justice For All," and "The Cincinnati Kid" are included in my personal list of the best movies ever made.
    The 2020s has been a decade so far of losing the best directors that were innovators of the Hollywood Renaissance of the 1960s and 1970s.
    First the prestigious Peter Bogdanovich, then the wonderful and fearless auteur William Friedkin, and now the noteworthy and gifted Norman Jewison.
    Thank you, guys.
    Thanks for making great cinema.

      Let me rephrase.
      The best directors of the fantastic decades of both the 1960s and 1970s that I nickname "The Revolutionary Newcomers."
      I wasn't disrespecting the two separate groups of filmmakers from the previous eras who I like to call "The Silent Pioneers" and "The Golden Age Masters."
      Ford, Hawks, Hitchcock, Wyler, Renoir, Wilder, and Lubitsch have and will always receive my absolute awe and respect.
      Especially Pappy Ford.
      The greatest American movie director who ever lived IMO.
