A romance film, starring Sidney Poitier as a widowed American doctor living in London who falls in love with the beautiful daughter of an African diplomat, played by Esther Anderson. "Seldom has a black woman been [up to that point in film history] permitted to be so relaxed and vulnerable on screen... Anderson's character, though pure fantasy, is the type any audience could swoon over, and it was a distinctly new depiction of black women in American films." (Bogle, Blacks in American Films, p. 227)
This was the second film to be directed by Poitier, as he gradually put increasing focus on directing.
