Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Novelist James Clavell wrote, produced and directed this 1967 British film (based on the novel by E. R. Braithwaite) about a rookie teacher who throws out stock lesson plans and really takes command of his unruly, adolescent students in a London school. Sidney Poitier is very good as a man struggling with the extent of his commitment to the job, and even more as a teacher whose commitment is to proffering life lessons instead of just academic ones. The spirit of this movie can also be found in more recent films such as Dangerous Minds and Mr. Holland's Opus, but none are as moving as this. Besides, the others don't have a title song performed by Lulu, who also stars. --Tom Keogh

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - To Sir With Love/60's nostalgia
This is a fantastic nostalgic film about a group of unruly teenagers and their suffering teacher( Sidney Poitier) in the 60's.An inspirational film which works just as well now. Look out for Patricia Routledge(keeping up appearances) in a small teaching role.Judy Geeson is brilliant playing the young lady with the crush on her teacher, and Lulu's film debut singing the main song,To Sir With Love is just plain superb,if you like musicals with a good story you will love this one.Suitable for all the family, I cant praise this one enough.To Sir With Love [1967]



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just love it
What can i say about this film i first saw it as a child and loved it. I loved the music and still do. I bought it on Video as soon as i saw it and i think my copy is worn out. It has transferred well to DVD still as lush. Oh if only we had Teachers like Mr Thackery (Sidney Poitier). This film was classic 60's brings back memories of the dark terraced streets and peoples attitudes. If you haven't seen it buy it you will not be dissappointed.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Sidney Poitier truly shines on this film
Sidney Poitier had three films released in 1967, in my opinion this was the best of them. "In the Heat of the Night" might have been more socially relevant when seen today, and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" might have been more conventionally entertaining, but "To Sir, With Love" was to me more intelligent, sensitive and emotional that the other two. I am amazed that Sidney was not nominated for the Oscar in 1967, but given his performances in all three films, it's obvious the voters were torn. Sidney Poitier had a year in 1967 that, due to the length of time it takes to make a film these days, may not be repeated now, that is 3 starring roles in three extremely profitable films which does not happen that quite often.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic film
I honestly believe that this film should be screened at schools as part of an O level, (or whatever the equivalent is now) English or Social studies course. I have seen this at least 25 times and it still brings a tear to the eye and gives food for thought about how we as a society treat others. It covers life, the coming of age, prejudice and death,and is so creatively transferred onto the big screen. Sidney Poitier has made many brilliant performances, but this, although one of his earliest must rank as one of his best. The title song by Lulu is fantastic, (just a shame she did a shortenned version on her latest album, the original was much better).
All in all, a brilliant film to sit in by the fire on a cold rainy night, with a bottle ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Feel Good from the 1960s
This is Poitier at his moody best in a film so evocative of the era only a film made at the time could have. I saw this at the cinema when it first came out and its still one of my favourites. Anyone who grew up in the 1960s should definitely watch it. Judy Geeson and Lulu play great roles and the end of school dance and the title song sung by Lulu in the closing scenes is a real tear-jerker. Enjoy it for what it is - a peice of nostalgia.
