Re: Sidney Poitier dead at 94

I vaguely recall renting Shoot to Kill on VHS back when I was in High School and liking it. Unfortunately it looks like you can't rent it digitally and the DVD is long out of print.

I think I saw it in 1989 and damn I wish I would have revisited it sooner.

I was talking about that film earlier today with some of my High School students as they were asking me who Poitier was.

RIP to an absolute legend!
