Yeah I’ll cry all night.
That piece of garbage lee made Italians look like morons any time they were in his films.
Probably got beaten like a b... by then when he was young.
Anyone who works with him I do not respect.
Broke my heart when Danny Aiello did. I forgave him because I like him so much...but it took a while
Enjoyed He Got Game.My fav actor in the movie is Bill Nunn who played Uncle Bubba. Bill and his wife Sat at the same table as as us at a luau in Maui. Next morning we went to mass and they were in same pew. Says a lot about a movie star who attends mass while on vacation. Played Radio do the right thing.
And the Italians in The Godfather? It’s just a movie.
IIRC, Lee said he had trouble when he first went to a school and them became friends with the guys he had trouble with.
It's likely Lee was jealous of the Italians sticking together for their community; unlike blacks always holding endless neighborhood meetings talking about standing up for each other.
Outside the hoods extorting money the Italian community was probably pretty stable and safe.
Lee likely sees it as a form of systemic racism.
I can’t watch anything made by the racist POS Spike Lee. I’ve tried but no dice.
