FILM DESCRIPTION:
Director Spike Lee dives headfirst into a whirlwind of racial and social ills, using the hottest day of the year on a city block in Brooklyn, New York as a springboard. Three businesses dominate the neighborhood: a storefront radio station, where a smooth-talking DJ (Samuel L. Jackson) spins the platters that count; a convenience store owned by a Korean couple; and Sal's Famous Pizzeria, the only white-operated business in the neighborhood. Sal (Danny Aiello) serves slices with his two sons, the brilliant Vito (Richard Edson) and the angry, racist Pino (John Turturro). Sal has a black employee, Mookie (Spike Lee), who wants to "get paid" but lacks ambition. His sister Jade (Joie Lee, Spike's sister), who has a greater sense of purpose and a "real" job, wants Mookie to start taking responsibility, including his son with his girlfriend Tina (Rosie Perez). Two of Mookie's best friends are Radio Raheem (Bill Nunn), a monolithic man who rarely speaks, preferring to blast Public Enemy's rap song Fight The Power on his enormous boom box; and Buggin' Out (Giancarlo Esposito), nicknamed for his Coke bottle drinks and habit of losing his cool. When Buggin' Out notices that Sal's "Wall of Fame," a photo gallery of famous Italian-Americans, does not include any people of color, he ends up demanding a boycott of the neighborhood on a day when tensions are already high, which leads to tragic consequences. consequences.
