    It is rare that Spike Lee's stance does not blindly favor black brothers. The pizza shop owner in the film is actually a victim. In the context of the entire community, the contradiction between multi-racial is like a flash of fire. After the violence ended, I couldn't remember what the original dispute was. The group portraits of the film are wonderful, and together with the emphasis on the hot and dry weather, constitute a work of...

    It doesn't predict the future, it just depicts the shape of the world all along. Another hot summer day in 1989, clamoring for people fighting against the power. Emotions accumulated in the heat wave to overflow, poured out into violence. An Italian smashed a tape recorder, a black man was killed by the police, a white man lit a fire, Spike Lee smashed a window with his own hands, all sanity evaporated in the flames, the left hand and the right hand were broken, and no one was left. Remember...

    4+. Golden Horse Restoration Edition in89 LUXE Hall two brushes. Great, how to portray a community, not just an individual, about the dialectical structure of two lines (Martin Luther King vs. Malcolm X) (fuck the present and any struggle, full of déjà vu). The rhythm is really good, the music and the camera (wide-angle anamorphic and skew, movement, etc.) repeatedly remind and emphasize the theme. The great significance of making the white-eyed Spike Lee perform in person (as a salaried person...

    Shooting a pure black movie in the Brooklyn black community, with excellent camera scheduling, Spike Lichong's story is full of angry, fast-talking, noisy blacks, and a sense of humor. The black group is poor but happy, but hides a group of collective subconscious The similar chaos frenzy is also Spike Lee's criticism and irony of his own ethnic group. The various black cultural life in Brooklyn must be very authentic. In the film, Samuel L. Jackson plays an interesting DJ, and there is a radio...

    CC Collection Part 97, produced in the United States in 1989. Although the topic of race caused an uproar in that year, it also created a film with the theme of broken thoughts, which was produced three years earlier than Quentin's "Reservoir Dogs". But it was only nominated for an Oscar, but did not win a prize. The original script lost to Dead Poets Society, and the supporting actor lost to Denzel Washington. 7.6...

    It took nearly an hour and a half to brew the crisis, and the smell of gunpowder was hidden in the "easy" mouth cannon. Spike Lee talked about a problem of ethnic mixing that transcends the times. How much dissatisfaction and resentment are gradually magnified under the cultural differences, daily feuds, and finally, under the banner of abstract and political correctness, wantonly doing dirty things, civilization. vulnerable to any...

    [A+] Personal opinion, it should be the best "racial film" in the world, representing the double victory of text and image. The camera is like a coquettish ghost, starting from the conflict in the private space, extending the perspective backwards and outwards to the street space, and the lateral movement of the lens lays the foundation for the space to be continuously filled with group portraits, while the scorching sun and The sticky and nauseating sweat is the most intuitive visual element...

    In the end seems to be defining the act of burning down the pizzeria as self-defense? But in my opinion, this is just two thugs going to make trouble unreasonably, and finally lead to the manslaughter by the police. Besides, the pizza shop owner has always been friendly to black people, except for the niggar when he is angry, but is this sentence worth ruining his previous decades of character? If Spike Lee's foothold is higher, on the one hand, white society does discriminate against black...

    Spike Lee is subjective to a certain extent, sarcastic about his brother, like the pizza delivery man played in the film, who was originally on the side of preventing trouble, but ended up making the biggest trouble. Discrimination and reverse discrimination, Asian New Yorkers seem to be at the bottom of the discrimination chain, sad. Thinking of Mr. Luo, who once fantasized about using his own Weibo of reverse discrimination to wake up the Chinese people not to use discriminatory names, he has...

    When the living neighborhood becomes the scene of conflict, Lee, as one of them, unreservedly extends the long day into a hotbed of racism. However, the attitude of the whole film may be too ambiguous: the object of criticism and the way of presentation There is a contradiction between the two, and he is undoubtedly aware of this, so he adds a famous famous quote at the end to dissolve this deconstructed presentation. This method itself is very clever, but the process of tearing down and...
