Vendor Provided Poor Quality Product
Added 11/17/2009
The vendor I purchased "A Raisin in the Sun" from misrepresented the product. I was overcharged for shipping, the product was damaged and not viewable. I asked for a refund and have not received a response in at least 3 weeks if not longer. I will never buy a product from that vendor again.

Directed by Daniel Petrie, this is the first of 3 film adaptations of the play created by Lorraine Hansberry (who also penned the screenplay) and stars the original theatrical cast. Fighting poverty, cramped space, and institutional racism, a black Chicago woman (Claudia McNeil) stakes her family's future on her late husband's insurance money but then leaves it in the hands of her mercurial son (Sidney Poitier). Try as he/she might to picture Hansberry and Petrie's vision, nothing could prepare the viewer for Poitier's fiery, intense Walter Lee Younger. But I give more praise to McNeil's Lena Younger, Walter's mother, whose subtle but strong demeanor is the glue that holds her family--and, dare I say, the story--together. Indeed the drama and the acting in "Raisin in the Sun" make it a classic in all sense of the word.
This film is rated is unrated: Adult Situations.

I love this timeless classic ,all of the actors were superb one of my all times favorites,And to think they cast Sean Combs in the new Raisin in the Sun this is only my opinion but he was totally laughable, nothing like Sidneys performance

An important movie in the early 60s, it is still as potent as ever.This movie is a legitimate work of art.
