For me an easy pick - A Raisin in the Sun, still a powerful and beautifully acted adaptation.
Closest runners-up would be The Defiant Ones and No Way Out.

His movie that I've always enjoyed the most is To Sir, with Love.

I have to admit, I have never watched To Sir, with Love. I really need to check it out...

I'm sure you'd enjoy it. It has a good and engaging story and pace, is entertaining, has great tunes (the title song is easily one of my top three fave movie songs of all times - in fact probably is my #1), a bit of romance, and a really appealing and cool vibe.
It's one of those movies I never get at all tired of, no matter how many times I've seen it.
You definitely should check it out, and I'm confident that, if you do, you'll be glad that you did.
