Do the Right Thing

i know its been said a million times but holy shit. "Do the Right Thing" is such an honest and provocative exploration of systemic racism, its frankly insane. I just thought this was such a great film that highlighted subtle racism among people, and how it never goes unnoticed. I think its also important to acknowledge the blatant racism in the film by the police officers, as well as the comments made about the Korean shop owners. A scene I think says a lot, is when Mookie steps away from Sals side and stands with the rest of the people forming the mob. At this point, Mookie is obviously done with the racism from Sal and Pino. Racism can also be witnessed subtly through Sal, even though he does try to defend himself. An example of this is when he was talking to his son about not wanting to move his pizzeria, the use of "them" when referring to the black neighborhood is a form of subtle racism. And the reason as to why Sal is so well written is because he’s not presented as a cartoon racist. He genuinely believes he cares about the neighborhood, yet he still sees himself as separate from it. Asides from writing, everything else was absolutely phenomenal. From the cinematography to the camerawork, it was immaculate. this is definitely a film everyone should watch, its ffrigginnn greatt
