  • For Love of Ivy Reviews:
    I really enjoy it! 4 Star Review
    2009-11-20 - I saw this film because I would like to see a very young Jennifer O'Neill. Unfourtanetely she is seen in a very few moments, but I really enjoy the film.

    STILL MEMORABLE AFTER 40 YEARS 5 Star Review
    2008-02-26 - I haven't seen For Love of Ivy since 1968, but in my mind's eye I can still visualize whole scenes. Now THAT's a great movie.

    Ivy and Jack 5 Star Review
    2007-10-21 - I started collecting Sidney Poitier's movies about 10 years ago. That's how I first heard the name, Abbey Lincoln. I know her now as a jazz stylist and actress. I've watched "For Love of Ivy" again and again. Each time, I watch it as if I'm seeing it for the very first time. Sidney was really a bad mamma jamma in this movie. He knew when to speak up and out and he knew when to turn his brow up and offer the "look." Love that look Sidney - it speaks volumes! The pair - Ivy and Jack - have good chemistry even though they were from 2 different worlds. By the end of the movie, I was convinced that he genuinely cared for her. Jack was Ivy's knight-in-shining-armor and I know that if there were a sequel, Ivy would have been a success as a professional. I was on pins and needles - rooting for her to get herself into the city - just as she had planned. For a time, she seemed to weaken under the pressure. The movie is so-o-o-o-o funny to me. Sidney Poitier comes across so seriously in real life that it was refreshing to see him "unveiled." Uptown Saturday Night and Let's Do It Again are "must-sees," as well. He and Bill Cosby are hilarious!!! Check out Abbey Lincoln in "Nothing But a Man." Filmmakers don't make movies like these anymore.

    Interesting 4 Star Review
    2007-04-11 - Would a man change for something better? Nice suggestion. Time brings on change I find this very unrealistic though. Good plot. I like the movie because there was very little subjective thoughts in it. This movie is a good way to going back to the days when tv was for children too.

    For Love of Sidney 5 Star Review
    2007-03-31 - This movie portrayed a successful, professional black business man in the 60's - -how refreshing. Sidney Poitier was not surprisingly, impressive, powerful and sexy!

    Terrific movie, good acting by all.
