None of the previous Spike Lee films has a white leading man role.

I’ve seen all of them except two:
“The Answer”..
This short film, made during his time at NYU’s film school, challenging D.W. Griffith’s”The Birth of a Nation”.
and
“Joe’s Bed-Stuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads”. Lee’s thesis film, which he completed as part of his Master of Fine Arts degree at NYU.
Black roles.

Spike Lee? Isn't he that guy who used to be somebody about 40 years ago? Seems like I heard that name once upon a time.

Never heard of him. I also thought Spike Lee was dead.

I saw Dune. He was awful. Unless they want to do a movie about that guy who killed the United Healthcare guy, but not if they want to do it the sick way the left turns a murderer into a hero just because they hate the victim. He’d need to be the creepy villain.

His success is largely because of the Hollywood crowd’s White Guilt.

He became their darling in the late 1980’s and those folks have praised everything he’s done while patting themselves on the back and feeling all warm and fuzzy.
