the remake wasn't exactly profound was it?

One of my fave films of all times (Mr Poitier!!!!!!) Many parallels&prophecies. Mr Poitier happens to be married to a caucasian woman named Joanna (Shimkus, for over 30 yrs); I'm sure they've had issues w/ ignorance (maybe not as bad as in 1967), but perservered. His character speaks of his children being pres. - now there IS a bi-racial pres. Aside from these and many other instances, tho, yes, the dialogue IS profound! That's what made the film. Too bad everyone can't think that way...

Wonderful Movie

because it was so prophetic. and other similarities to obama and his life story were unusually coincidental.

Why?
This movie is so profound and the dialogue in this movie says alot. Remember this movie was made in the 1960's. One of my all time favorites
