Alcofribas Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 i once read a book of his all about how difficult it was for him to make his first film, how hard it was to get money he needed, how impossible it seemed that he would ever be able to get access to everything he needed, etc and how fucking depressing it all was for him. one would think that initial artistic experience in the business would have instilled in him some basic humility and empathy for struggling artists. but I can't say I'm surprised.

Guest Gary C Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 They look great in that compilation. And I'm tempted to say I quite enjoy them in movies. But used sparingly and for a surreal effect that's reflected in subtext or dialogue. Just having two characters talk idly with crazy dolly-zoom is a director being a dick. Saying that, I like the dolly scene from Goodfellas. One of my favourites. The subtext, that the gangsters are closing-in on the characters, isn't as heavy but it works. Oh, and Hitchcock loved it. So yeah, it's all good. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/81416-spike-lee-is-a-horrible-person/page/2/#findComment-2098224 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 The mass is a pretty forgetful lot, while the movie still gets a lot of publicity, which settles in the unconscious mind.

marf Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) ive always felt he was a racist douche riding on liberal white guilt. his movies provoke discussion, my ass. they wrecked the korean's store. he worked hard for that. no discussion. ok, they get tax breaks, no mention of that, but Danny Aiello wasnt an immigrant with tax breaks. he worked for hard for that pizza place. you see him working. you dont see the assholes coming in there working. no amount of rationalizing with white guilt is going to get me on your side, Spike. but i guess that is the real design of that film. to make white people like me sound like a racist. That said. do the right thing was a great movie. well done film Edited November 30, 2013 by marf Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/81416-spike-lee-is-a-horrible-person/page/2/#findComment-2098589 Share on other sites More sharing options...
