Do the Right Thing

“It's the hottest day of the summer. You can do nothing, you can do something, or you can...”

Buggin Out (Giancarlo Esposito) walks into Sal's Famous Pizzeria in Brooklyn and wants one thing changed: the Wall of Fame, which holds only Italian actors, in a shop that feeds a black neighborhood. Sal (Danny Aiello) has owned the place for years and says it's his wall, his pizza, his rules. Spike Lee sets it on one hot summer day, and what's at risk is the whole block, from Da Mayor and Mother Sister to everyone who eats there.
