Do Right



Brooklyn's best film maker Spike Lee discusses how he made "Do The Right Thing" in NY Magazine, in the process admitting he didn't know what he was he doing on She’s Gotta Have It / School Daze and revealing that Robert De Niro turned him down. Spike also reveals his feelings on the democratic race

"The Clintons, man, they would lie on a stack of Bibles. Snipers? That’s not misspeaking; that’s some pure bullshit. I voted for Clinton twice, but that’s over with. These old black politicians say, “Ooh, Massuh Clinton was good to us, massuh hired a lot of us, massuh was good!” Hoo! Charlie Rangel, David Dinkins—they have to understand this is a new day. People ain’t feelin’ that stuff. It’s like a tide, and the people who get in the way are just gonna get swept out into the ocean."
