  • When the shaved ice truck rolls into the neighbourhood, some of the children get a little too excited and forget about cars! But Da Mayor is looking out for them.
    Do The Right Thing (1989): Salvatore "Sal" Fragione (Danny Aiello) is the Italian owner of a pizzeria in Brooklyn. A neighborhood local, Buggin' Out (Giancarlo Esposito), becomes upset when he sees that the pizzeria's Wall of Fame exhibits only Italian actors. Buggin' Out believes a pizzeria in a black neighborhood should showcase black actors, but Sal disagrees. The wall becomes a symbol of racism and hate to Buggin' Out and to other people in the neighborhood, and tensions rise.

    Da Mayor deserves respect for saving that boy's life.

    Theres no moment in this movie that plays out exactly as expected/morally unambiguously. Like you have no resting point watching this film, you’re always thinking.

    Eddie getting almost run over by a reckless driver is based upon Spike Lee's childhood of getting almost run over by a car.

    Eddie missed the Ice Cream truck. And his mom spank him like 7 times. Then she says, "Get upstairs now. And when your father come out, he gonna wear your narrow behind now, too."

      I feel bad for the child having to grow up in such an abusive household. There are other ways to show children consequences for their actions that don’t involve abuse.

    Here's a serious question. What did Eddie do to deserve that? Think about it. He almost got hit by a car, a man saved his life, and when his mother asks what happened, all Eddie gets is a scolding, a spanking, and yelling from his mother. He did absolutely nothing to deserve what he got. If anything, his mother should be happy he's alive. Anyone who does what Eddie's mother did to him does not deserve to be a parent. That is just downright abusive parenting.

      Unfortunately some households are like that
      Simply because he said "Man knocked me down"
      Of course he's gonna be either dishonest but if he didn't see that truck he also didn't see the old man,
      And so the mom thinks he's lying and hence punishes himseverly for that alone

    • @matthewallen445

      ​@PalomasMusic666 Still, the right thing to do would be to get both sides of the story and let Eddie properly explain himself. She didn't even give him a chance to properly tell her what happened. She automatically assumed the worst and started spanking him. That is just wrong.

      Yes it is, and it also goes to show why that young man will grow up to be with self conscious issues,
      Spike Lee knows this and chooses to shed a side to black America that often times we don't see,
      Yes the right thing for her to have done would have been exactly what you were saying but she likely had similar parents and hence the cycle goes on

    The mom clearly overreacted and had no right to hit her son. I get it back them that was common to hit your kids but it doesn’t do any good to put your hand on them. Even the other guys were like telling her not to hit her son.

    Did Lin Manuel Miranda copy this film for In the Heights?

    • @win_jayden
      @win_jayden 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not necessarily. The piragua is a staple of black/brown NYC neighborhoods before the 2000s. Then at some point ice cream trucks came around and that conflict between the piragua and the ice cream man came about.
      However, I’d say Do The Right Thing had a heavy influence on In The Heights (much like Do The Right Thing had an influence on everything). So to say Lin copied Spike Lee is not true, but to say Lin was influenced by Spike is most likely true.
