Philadelphia homicide cop Virgil Tibbs (Sidney Poitier) was waiting for the train out of Sparta, Mississippi, when the local constabulary rousted him on a murder charge. After learning of Tibbs' bona fides-and reputation-racist police chief Bill Gillespie (Best Actor Oscar-winner Rod Steiger) grudgingly asked his ex-suspect's help in flushing out the real perpetrator. Five total Oscars, including Best Picture, went to Norman Jewison's compelling adaptation of John Ball's novel; Warren Oates, Lee Grant co-star. 110 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks: English DTS HD 5.1, LPCM stereo; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary; featurettes; theatrical trailer. Two-disc set. Region Free
