...SOUND OF THE FUNKY DRUMMER '

I will never forget the day that I saw Spike Lee's 'Do the Right Thing'

I was very much into the Whole Hip Hop scene at the time, but when this came out it changed the way I looked at it & how I felt about it.

The opening Titles alone where enough for me...I could have left after Spike Lee's name came up at the end. Rosie Perez moves like no other...watch & see, she feels what Chuck is saying & her movements depict her emotion's & the Time & Place.

New York City, in the last throws of the 90's...social unrest, equality continues to be the topic of the day & how people of colour chose his or her reaction to the animosity. What is ironic is that all these things seemed to be apparent at the Cannes Film Festival where the Film was premiered...it should have won the festival, but the rumours were that it was just 'too Black'

If ever a film affirmed it's message, it was that day.

I would hate to think that there are people out there that have not scene this...well if not take the time & watch one of the Greatest Pieces of Contemporary Celluloid.

Be Well.
