Do the Right Thing 1989 It's the hottest day of the year in Brooklyn, New York. Aside from a radio station where a talkative DJ showcases his talents and a grocery store run by a Korean couple, the area's only action center is a pizzeria and the only business in the area run by a white male. The man's two crazy sons and tired black Muki work at Sala's famous pizzeria. In addition to her overly responsible sister, Tina, Muka has two other best friends in her life: the quiet rap lover Radio Raheem and the hot-tempered Buggin' Out. One day, Baggin tries to mobilize the locals by raising the question of why white people always hang on the Italian-American column in Sam's shop. What his little mind can't count on is how easily things can get out of hand on this hottest day of the year when the nerves are already tense. With Do the Right Thing, considered one of the most valuable American films of the '80s, Spike Lee did the very hard thing and brought a dangerous topic like racism to the big screen despite its complexity. In fact, it would not be wrong to say that thanks to the success of this film, he had the opportunity to make the films he wanted in the following years.
