my mom got me hooked on spike lee flicks starting with mo better blues. this is when I became oh so well acquainted with classic spike technique. first, the jazz score. no spike lee joint is complete without some sort of jazz seeping right out of a scene as if it is a character in and of itself. second, is the spike lee shot, used in nearly every spike lee film…I'm sure there is a technical name for this, if you are a film head help me out here. now on my top ten spike lee joints…
1. mo better blues
2. malcolm x
3. four little girls
4. do the right thing
5. jungle fever
6. bamboozled
7. school daze
8. when the levees broke
9. she's gotta have it
10. get on the bus
