Dysfunctional white family tries to set up Sidney Poitier with their black maid so she doesn't get all uppity and decide to leave. Well, the family's presented as well-meaning so we skip all the race issues. Ultimately I wish I watched a race movie rather than a romance. SP is as charming as ever. Fav scene: when Abbey Lincoln finds out the family paid Poitier to ask her out.
