    Compared with "Do What You Should Do" two years ago, Spike Lee has escaped the original tone of expression in his way of expression, and he was really a director who specializes in writing stories in the early days, and the script layout is better than it is now. The title "jungle fever" is a blackened slang term referring to "black-and-white adultery". It fully presents the difficulties encountered by both black and white, and a bowl of water flatly shows the life and conflicts in the community. The most interesting thing is the translation of two walks, two scenes of prostitutes, and the subjective scene of finding a brother. This is a community where discrimination and religion, sexuality and drugs are intertwined. In the end, it may be the victory of conservatism, but the same cannot escape the fate of the community.
