As someone who only recently saw Spike Lee’s first studio film, I’m here to say: GO SEE THIS MOVIE. It’s essential American viewing, a slice-of-Brooklyn-life with a stacked cast trying to get by on the hottest day of the year. Join Lee himself, Giancarlo Esposito, John Turturro, and Martin Lawrence and Rosie Perez in their film debuts in vignettes that prove the more things change, the more they stay the same. Bonus Danny Aiello for you Moonstruck heads out there. Watch him earn that Oscar nomination, and cry against fate that Lee didn’t get the same. – Cat McCarrey
