The Mark of the Hawk (1957)
This is what Sidney Poitier was thinking...

To answer the above users question "What was Sidney thinking?", Poitier did not in fact "need work" but was a student of the writer H. Kenn Carmichael. I would also like to reiterate the time period. It was 1957 and the movie should be viewed in that way. I believe viewers should see for themselves. Carmichael has a Master's degree from the University of Wisconsin and a Ph.D from the University of Minnesota. He was head of the theater department in the 30's and later worked at City College in Los Angeles. Later in life he did end up becoming an associate pastor and missionary for the Presbyterian Church, USA with his wife. He also became an accomplished song writer.
