Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The Last Brickmaker in America, starring Sidney Poitier, is a great family movie. Poitier gives a strong performance as Henry Cobb, an elderly gentleman suffering from the recent loss of his wife and ready to give up his brick making business. He meets Danny, a troubled 13 year old, and the two click. As Danny helps Henry make bricks and Henry helps Danny realize what is important in life, they both change.
This is one of those movies that make you feel good, and makes you wish problems in life could always have such happy endings. I highly recommend this movie for everyone who likes good family films. You won't be disappointed.
Poitier has been a favorite of mine ever since I saw him in his Academy Award winning performance in Lilies of the Field in 1963. I felt that I really got to know him when I read his autobiography, The Measure of a Man: A Spiritual Autobiography (Oprah's Book Club)and I recommend it to anyone interested in learning about Poitier.
