To Sir, With Love

One of the 1960s' most beloved and endearing films, To Sir With Love is available on DVD through Columbia Classics. The DVD features the widescreen anamorphic (1:85:1) version of the film on one side and the full-screen (1:33:1) version on the other. Also included are scene selections as well as subtitles in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, and Thai. The included booklet has brief production notes. Other bonus features include detailed talent files on director James Clavell and the film's star, Sidney Poitier, who was at the height of his popularity at the time of the film's release, plus the film's trailer, as well as bonus trailers for the Poitier A Raisin in the Sun, Buck and the Preacher, and Brother John. The only thing missing from this otherwise fine DVD is some mention of the film's other interesting actors, especially Lulu, who scored one of the biggest hits of the 1960s with the film's timeless title song.
