Do the Right Thing

"STAY BLACK!!!!" My second Spike Lee movie after Malcolm X and oh my fucking god this shit is a masterpiece too. It was crazy enough that he had a movie like Malcolm X under his belt and now this too????? Yeah Spike's the goat bro. Absolutely nobody portrays black life on cinema better than him. How tf does he make these movies soooo vibrant and so alive? Every frame is oozing with colour, streets are pulsating, every single character feels sooo real, every piece of dialogue just comes off soo natural. Also he somehow makes us feeeeeel the hot as fuck weather through the screen idk how does that. The sounds, the shots, even the sweaty bodies make it all feel real asf. Sooo sooo beautifully made. That third act of chaos was genuinely one of the best things I have ever seen. Plus the message of the movie is sooo heavy and strong and complex. You gotta study this film to truly get this. I'm about to watch Spike Lee interviews to get a better understanding of this shit, what exactly was his school of thought when he made this? Because that juxtaposition of idealogies between Martin Luther King Jr and Malcolm X definitely gives me something to think about. All I can say is that watching this reminded me of that one Denzel Washington quote where he said, "Is the sheep preaching hate when he says that i'm not going to let the wolf eat me anymore?" . I'm gonna need some time to digest this film but one things for sure, this is a masterpiece.
