Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner was an award-winning bi-racial
comedy movie starring
Spencer Tracy,
Katherine Hepburn,
Sidney Poitier, and Katharine Houghton. The movie was about a young white Americann woman (Houghton) who went on a holiday to
Hawaii where she had a whirlwind romance with a black doctor (Poitier); the two will marry and she will return with him to
Switzerland. The bulk of the film deals with the daughter's return to her
middle-class American home bringing her new
fiancé to dinner to meet her parents, and the discrimination that the family faces afterwards.
