The timeless original classic film and its 1995 sequel are paired together in this special collection.
To Sir with Love (1967) is a timeless film about an earnest teacher (the exceptional Sidney Poitier) who takes up a position in a tough school in London's East End. To Sir, With Love (1967) was adapted (from the book by E.R. Braithwaite) by best-selling novelist James Clavell (Shogun), who also produced and directed. Featuring lively appearances by Judy Geeson, Suzy Kendall, and Lulu, who sings the smash-hit title song.
To Sir With Love II (1995) sees Sidney Poitier return as teacher Mark Thackeray. This time round Thackeray has swapped the streets of London for those of down-town Chicago, faced with the challenge of convincing hardened gang members that there is an alternative to street violence. As he struggles to instill respect and understanding in his students, he also pursues his first love; a woman he knew thirty years ago when he was a young man in Guyana.
