Danny Glover did indeed star as "Walter" in a made-for-TV version of the play: "A Raisin In The Sun." The play was televised on PBS as I recall. I recorded it on videotape when it aired sometime in the late 1980s. Unfortunately, it was later damaged. In my opinion, Danny Glover's portrayal of Walter was the best by far! Walter was played in the movie by Sidney Portier. As much as I love Sidney's work in many movies like: "In The Heat Of The Night" and "The Defiant Ones," I have to say that Danny's version of Walter was much better. Sean "Diddy" Combs was also featured in the role of Walter a couple of years ago in a special presentation of the play on the ABC network. Felicia Rashad (Bill Cosby's "wife" on his two sitcoms) played Walter's mother. Diddy's portrayal of the frustrated dreamer, Walter, did not capture the essence of the character the way Danny Glover did. So, although Danny gave the best performance of the three actors who played Walter, his "Walter" was probably the least watched because of being shown only on PBS. I wish I could find out where I could buy a DVD of Danny Glover's performance in "Raisin In The Sun." That version of the masterpiece play gets five stars in my book! The other two attempts don't even come close. (Sorry Sidney, Sorry Diddy)
