Do the Right Thing | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

[Spike Lee] offers no solutions, but confronts us with the facts — the audience is left with no doubts about the authenticity of the story.

A beautifully finished piece of work. Lee and his able cinematographer Ernest Dickerson understand how meaning often resides in mood, movingly rendered here in shots at dust of cobalt blue skies framing row houses blackened in the rancorous summer heat.

Over 30 years later, Lee’s “Do the Right Thing” remains more relevant than ever.

Do the Right Thing is a sanitized effort by Spike Lee who has now become a mainstream filmmaker, providing only a new twist on old values.

Maybe we can assess Spike Lee’s movie based on its ability to make us see more clearly the array of issues it raises, as we all strive to produce truer and more helpful critiques of our society.
