Thanks for all the great background information as this is one of my favorite movies ever.PB is right- back in that era, you just didn't have interracial dating.
Sorry but you can't say that "Back in that era, you didn't have interracial dating" there was. Lets not forget the Oscar winning movie, Guess who's coming to Dinner with Sidney Poitier, Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn was both so popular and controversial.
