Sidney Poitier has left the building

It was junk, but as it stood in the flickering glow, it had a dark, organic quality – not exactly life, but something dynamic and disquieting and coiled and potent that was making the Dean vibrate on his feet. It radiated something that suggested that, just by existing and looking like it did, it was breaking at least nine laws and twenty-three guidelines.

You didn't know what one of the bigger moviestars in the last few decades looked like even vaguely? Wow, that's rare.
Got an academy award as early as 1963.

Yep. Not much of a moviegoer or -watcher. I could never be the persistent movie otaku in "Desperately Seeking Ranma".
