The Defiant Ones

Streaming video - 1958

Winner of two Oscars® for Best Writing and Cinematography, “THE DEFIANT ONES” broke new ground by delivering its story of racial intolerance through a fast-moving blend of action and suspense. Joker (Tony Curtis) and Noah (Sidney Poitier) are two convicts on the run from a Southern work gang, bound together by an unbreakable iron chain and separated by an unbridled hatred toward each other. Relentlessly pursued by a posse and bloodhounds, they must put aside their differences to survive!
