As director Spike Lee's third work, "Do As You Should" shows the audience its proficient narrative ability, especially in the mastery of group portraits. There is a famous joke here. The film was shortlisted in the main competition of Cannes that year. The confident Spike Lee believed that winning the Palme d'Or was inevitable. Unexpectedly, the final prize went to Steven Soderbergh's debut work "Sex, Lies and Video", which made Spike Lee was dissatisfied and threatened to engrave the name of...

Spike Lee's peak work, the story chose a day in Brooklyn, New York, where Italians, Americans, blacks, Koreans, etc. lived. The small contradictions between the characters gradually accumulated and caused interracial hatred. The director starts from the details, does not classify people by skin color, and focuses on the contradictions formed by differences in personality and cognition, so there are kind-hearted Da Mayor and Vito, Radio Raheem and Pino who like to have trouble, and all kinds of...

Just some notes of this interesting film
Spike Lee films a one-day story in Brooklyn, a black metropolis. What interesting is that it is not a story about gangs, drugs, but an ordinary story about neighborhood and daily life, although it ends with a unordinary riot and looting. We all know a good story should have contradiction even confrontation. In this story it is not a confrontation as we imagine between black and whites, but black and immigrants, no matter the Italian, or the Korean, who are actually the minority in this...

A point of view on the formation of group portraits
If watching a movie can correspond to the time of day, it will give birth to more meanings. When the rain is pouring, I think of Andy escaping from Shawshank Prison. He climbed through the filth and ran to the sea of freedom; ; In order not to form a ratio, this is the example.
It was sweltering heat, and the weather was too hot to go out. I casually flipped through movies at home and saw Spike Lee's "Do the Right Thing". What are you doing?" This sounds more interesting. And this movie...

Shocking, isn't this what happened today? Take out your anger at the police, the power apparatus, and the social fabric on your neighbor's shop, and what's the problem? But in the hot weather with such turbulent emotions, the roar can no longer be heard, and perhaps the only way to communicate is violence. And if their next generation can only grow up in rough, then this vicious circle will never...

After seeing the first two-thirds, I still think, this is the funniest film I have seen in a long time (stepping on shoes, buying batteries, I laughed so hard, the two brothers of the Sa family are in love, and the little black brother has sexy eyes). I thought I would laugh to the end, but I didn't expect that all the clues, foreshadowing, and all kinds of secret and unannounced emotions would suddenly converge to one point, and it would explode like a chemical reaction of gunpowder explosion,...

I happened to watch the documentary about the costume design of this film. The bright costume colors refer to the African flag. No wonder there is a familiar harmony. (Racial talent is really enviable, lee's lead legs are so long and long) Strong tones and dazzling mirror movements, violence and poverty, this is a 38-degree...

Everyone's screaming from start to finish, but it just makes you feel like everyone's real and cute, until the end of the irreversible riot. Spike Lee has pride, confidence, and introspection on the black neighborhood. Why are Koreans able to open a food store within a year of coming, while a few black old men sit on the street and drink beer all their lives? Italians who refuse to post pictures of black people in restaurants can bring disaster, but what did the Asians on the opposite side do...
