Shelley was fabulous in the role. Of course, she was NOT a racist. Shelley said about the character how vile she was. The character was vile beyond belief, a female Hitler, vulgar and evil, trash on trash. And Shelley played the role to perfection.

I've seen that dress on Project Runway!!! xD

@steeplepossum39 Winters character was so vile that she made you ashamed to belong to the same species. I wanted to beat her with a 2x4 for the way she treated "Sleena". It takes serious talent to stir that kind of emotion in a person. So sad to see Elizabeth Hartmann in the audience at 1:58. This was her 1st film role and she played her character to perfection in my opinion. You couldn't help but love her. She comitted suicide after a long battle with depression. Poitier was great as usual.

@JOJO22858 Very true. After this so many people told Shelley they hater her because she was such a racist!! That was a double edged sword for Shelley: she knew was good to be so convincing but for people to believe she WAS the character??? Anyone who knew Shelley knows what BS that is. They're NEVER be another Shelley!
BTW, I believe that is Sexy Rexy (Harrison), in glasses, seated behind her. And isn't that the great Rachel Roberts (his then wife) next to him?? Another great gone too soon.
