Popular Post ezzra Posted January 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2022 Actually he was the first black movie star i can recall to see him on the big screen and what a pleasant experience was to see him there, pity we didn't much more of his acting in good number of years... R.I.P. Sir... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendejo Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 "I ain't building no chapel!" I had a friend, his sister was a nun, and they managed to convince him to paint the inside of their school one long, hot NYC summer. I used to tease him with that line, calling him Homer Jones. For many of us who were around in the 1960s the "Mr Tibbs" quote was his signature line; that movie came out in the midst of the Civil Rights era. He also did a movie with Michael Caine about South Africa during the apartheid era called The Wilby Conspiracy -- not a great movie but pretty interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
