Do the Right Thing
In this episode of Soldiers of Cinema, Clark and Cullen explore Do the Right Thing (1989), Spike Lee’s masterwork of heat, tension, and community — a vibrant and volatile depiction of one Brooklyn block on the hottest day of the year. While not Lee’s debut feature, his third film made concrete much of the style that he would become famous for and brought together an ensemble cast to tell a story of which’s cultural relevance continues to grow.
