Cult and classic movies with cold beers on draft and hot takes encouraged. A sociable, big screen brouhaha with no tickets, no ushers, and definitely no shushing.
June’s movie is DO THE RIGHT THING (1989)
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.
Written and directed by Spike Lee.
