3. I can't remember

this well but there was a scene where an older white man slaps Sidney Portier (sp?) and he slaps him back and the white man, all unbelieving a black man would dare slap him back looks at Rod Steiger and says "What are you going to do about that?" And Rod thinks about it and says "I don't know."
I'm probably not remembering it exactly, but it was a very powerful scene.
