Watch A Patch of Blue

A black man named Gordon befriends a blind, uneducated white girl named Selina and tries to help her escape her poor, abusive home life. The last sight Selina remembers is the color blue. The heartbreaking film stars Sidney Poitier and Elizabeth Hartman and Shelley Winters as Selina's horrific mother, Rose-Ann D'Arcey. Hartman received an Academy Award nomination for the role, which was her film debut.
