Spencer Tracy pretty much wins this whole film. Well acted period drama that no doubt has some relevance today.

Excellent examination of the genuine and personal issues surrounding race relations in spite of people's ideological devotion to liberalism and equality. Strong performances by Hepburn, Tracy and Poitier in particular, with a brilliant closing monologue which tugged at the heartstrings in all the right ways. While its final message is clear and sentimental, I'd much rather this, with its historical contextual importance, than anything similar made recently.

One frequently sophomoric sentimental screenplay buoyed up by a glorious bow-out performance by the deservedly legendary screen team.

This is a difficult film for me to rate. It revolves around a conflict that is today almost nonsensical, and the entire film is a series of conversations about it, which (in my opinion) made it a very boring film. Much of Joanna's dialogue is forced and hopelessly naive, and I felt the movie ran far too long. The only parts of the film I truly enjoyed were the verbal smackdowns visited upon Helen and Dr. Prentice's father by Katharine Hepburn and Sidney Poitier, respectively.

Gngh. Feels out of date and unnecessary today. The dramedy is awkward, and the soundtrack is awful. Although, seeing old man Tracy is fun.

Slow piece of white liberal indulgence. It probably looks a little better now than it did during The Summer of Love, but it is still slow. It's a shame this is Tracy's last film.

GWCTD's problem is that it's kind of a boring movie. It's a dialogue driven piece that lacks anything truly captivating to draw you in. Maybe in 1967 the interracial marriage aspect was shocking enough that it kept the movie going, but I don't think it's aged very well. A fine film and a piece history, but overall it's just alright.

It didn’t go deep enough into the issues as I’d have liked, but it had some good things to say about not only race and love but parenting too. There were brilliant performances by Spencer Tracey, Katharine Hepburn and especially Sidney Poitier. So, it wasn’t entirely what I’d hoped for, but it was nice and well-made.

Spencer Tracy is great in this film. I hadn't realized he died just days after it wrapped, but it makes the final scene more powerful. Sidney Poitier is also great in this film. I didn't think the subject matter would give him a chance to show off his intensity but it did and I was not disappointed.

A very important movie in the history of film, and one that really needs to be watched with the context of race relations in the 1960s in mind. If you don't understand the struggles that interracial couples faced back then, of course the premise is going to seem far fetched. Amazing performances all around, with Poitier, Hepburn, and Tracy all having ample room to shine.

So the engaged couple has known each other for two weeks, he's 37 and she's 23, but the concern is that he's black and she's white. Totally reasonable. I loved this way more than I had expected to. The early racism is cringe-worthy but also somehow delightful. The later fragmentation of the group provides some really insightful analysis. In The Heat Of The Night and Guess Who's Coming To Dinner is an incredible one-two punch by Poitier. I highly recommend them both.
