He’s soon embarrassed to learn that the man he has arrested is Detective Virgil Tibbs (Sidney Poitier), an experienced police officer from Philadelphia. The unlikely pair are forced to work together to unravel the mystery, leading them on a line of enquiry that will challenge both of their preconceptions. NR / 100 min.

Barbara Streisand and Ryan O'Neal star in this screwball romantic comedy from director by Peter Bogdanovich. Carefree, eccentric Judy Maxwell (Streisand) has a suitcase with an encyclopedia and a nightgown--and eyes for repressed, eccentric Howard Bannister (O'Neal). Howard has a suitcase full of igneous rocks to prove an esoteric musical theory and an overly proper fiancée named Eunice (Madeline Kahn). None of them know Mr. Smith (Michael Murphy), who has a suitcase full of top-secret government documents and a nefarious man tailing him. Add another suitcase full of jewels, a crooked hotel detective, and a jealous musicologist; put them all together in the same hotel, juggle the suitcases ... and watch the laughs fly! G / 94 min.
