CNN —In theory there’s only so much to be done with a celebrity biography, but when the subject is Sidney Poitier, that’s an unusually target-rich environment. “Sidney,” a documentary from director Reginald Hudlin produced by Oprah Winfrey, does the actor justice, providing context, depth and considerable warmth in chronicling his remarkable life and trailblazing career. “He was given big shoulders, but he had to carry a lot of weight,” says Denzel Washington. “Sidney” casts its own warming glow, in a way that sheds light not only Poitier’s path but also the decades in which he carved it out. “Sidney” premieres September 23 in select theaters and on Apple TV+.
