The 7th Cavalry got their butts in a sling again after Little Big Horn, fourteen years later, the day after the Wounded Knee Massacre. If it wasn't for the 9th Cavalry Buffalo Soldiers, there would of been a second massacre of the 7th. Rescue at Pine Ridge. com.

Lillies of the Field is a very good and wholesame movie and Poitier was perfect for that role. I always thought he should won for In the Heat of the Night as well.

Oh what a great moment in African-American history! What an incredible individual Portier is. His persistence in a tough industry for blacks certainly paid off and the world as benefited from Portier's life a lot more than people realise.Never before have I seen so many good comments on a YouTube video!
