   Is 'brother John' a sci-fi movie?

   • "Brother John" is an extremely eclectic film. The genre of drama/sci-fi just about says it all, all while saying next to nothing. Sure, that's basically what it is... a strange combination of small-town drama, mixed with a dark and murky undertone.

   Is 'brother John' a mystery?

   • A lot of this hinges on the dim, comforting cinematography of Gerald Perry Finnerman, who underlights almost everything, getting across a strong sense of warmth. You might call "Brother John" a mystery, and as I leave my thoughts on a film that few remember, I'm struck by the final questions in the dialogue. What about hope, what about love?

   Brother John (1971) is one of the least known of all Sidney Poitier's roughly 50 films and one that was not received favorably by critics at the time of its release. Many viewers, however, remember it as an unusual and effecting mix of social-issue cinema and something approaching a fantasy story with a spiritual basis.
