About this product

Product Information

Arguably Spike Lee's best feature film, Do The Right Thing is a popular and celebrated example of African American's ongoing new black film wave . Set during the hottest day of a racially tense year in New York City, the film's ensemble cast play out the edgy negotiations and dramas of a racially and culturally diverse working-class Brooklyn neighbourhood. Do The Right Thing depicts black urban life from a contemporary African American point of view. This book discusses how the film epitomises Spike Lee's powerful impact on the representation of race and difference in America, the progress of black film-making and the rise of multicultural voices in the media. The author emphasizes Lee's timely understanding of black film-making as a complex act, mixing the skills of the art, politics and business in order to fashion a creative practice that confonts institutional discrimination and power relations head on.
