This is a very good movie. "A Patch of Blue" with Sidney Poitier,1965. I usually can't get into tearjerkers but this one was really good. Poitier befriends then falls in love with a neglected and abused blind girl. His being black complicates matters. Poitier is great in an (for him) understated role. Black & white photography actually adds to the feeling. Try & catch this.
