Do the Right Thing at The Independent Picture House
Details
Come join us for a Friday evening screening of Spike Lee's 1989 film, Do the Right Thing. The movie starts at 7:30.
Description: 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.
The trailer can be watched here.
Tickets can be purchased here.
Seating at IPH is first come, first served. If you have a seating preference, please plan to arrive early. Those who arrive early usually gather in the lobby before seating for the movie starts.
After the movie ends, those of us with availability may plan to hang out for a bit (possibly somewhere nearby) to socialize and discuss.
