My favorite scene .....


....is when the racist soldier challenges Joe Louis, whom he does not recognize. The look on his face when he realizes who it is that he is threatening is priceless. Also the amused look on Louis's face, which can be summed up as saying "oh really??!!". I just wished an officer had stepped up and said "you men will have to settle this in the ring!!!!".

Indeed! Similar moment in a way to the scene early in the film In The Heat of the Night, when Rod Steiger's racist Sheriff Gillespie is grilling murder suspect Sidney Poitier's Virgil Tibbs in a most demeaning way and Tibbs tells him "I am a police officer!" Gillespie's face does a classic "say what" look!

Oh please ITHOTN is full of such great moments.
How about after Tibbs displays his shield?

Chief: "Woodddd" Sam looking at the shield. Chief: "oh yeah", again higher voice " oh yeahhh"

"They call me MR TIBBS"
