Calling all Manuel's Movie Club Members. This month's movie is In The Heat Of The Night (1967) with Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger. It airs Feb 18 at 7pm (Central US) on TCM.
I want to tell you how MUCH this movie club means to Manuel. After 30 years on Angola's death row, it gives him AGENCY, something so critical to self-worth and something so lacking for most inmates.
To join the club, just watch the movie and then reply to this post with your thoughts or reactions.

I wasn’t able to watch last night on TMC. I found it on Paramount+ and just finished watching it.
What can I say that hasn’t already been said about this film?
It’s brilliant. Every aspect. Even though I’ve seen it before decades ago, I still felt ALL the things. Only harder. All these years have passed but all the things portrayed in the film are still here breaking my heart. The end still made me smile.
Still, still, still hoping...
@wren One of my favorite picks by Manuel. Such an intense, beautifully portrayed film. As you say, Wren, still resonating deeply. I’ll let Manuel know your thoughts when I see him on Thursday.
