The Defiant Ones
(1958)|
Two escaped convicts -- one black (Sidney Poitier), one white (Tony Curtis), and both shackled in the same pair of handcuffs -- battle the elements and each other as they travel Southern back roads eluding the ever-approaching posse. Although the device of binding two racial antagonists together for survival may be rather obvious now, the idea wasn't old hat in the 1960s, and the top-notch performances remain ageless. Stanley Kramer directs.
