An incredible drama in the simplest and purest form...you will experience joy, anger, and even choke on frustration which will mold into a triumphant finale. See this it's good for your soul.

Sidney Poitier can do no wrong in my book. This was a sweet movie where he plays a 91 year old man who is still in good shape and continues to work. He lives a simple life but land developers try and have him declared incompetent in order to seize his property. It was a cute movie that will make you feel good.
