3.0 out of 5 stars Glaring Omissions, January 5, 2008

By	M. L. Anson "LadyFaire1670" (Penn, PA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

How can you put together a collection of Sidney Poitier's films and NOT include such true groundbreakers as 'To Sir, With Love' or the amazing 'Guess Who's Coming To Dinner' - which is not only landmark for it's 'subject matter' but also was Spencer Tracy's last film??? I don't understand it. At first I thought this was going to be a great collection - and it is by virtue of being centered such an amazing man and actor - but it's not the set it could have been... or SHOULD have been. I'd rather buy the collector's editions of the individual films.
The man is a genius - this should have showcased that.
