Spike Lee, who directed and played Mookie in Do the Right Thing (1989), recently visited the movie’s Bedford–Stuyvesant neighborhood in a video made for the twenty-fifth anniversary of the film. In the 22-minute documentary from Beats Music, Lee is joined on the streets of Brooklyn by Danny Aiello, who played Sal in the film, as well as by other stars like Rosie Perez and by other people who worked on the film.
The documentary then ends with a 25th Anniversary Block Party with guests that include Dave Chappelle, Wesley Snipes, Yasiin Bey (aka Mos Def), Erykah Badu, and Public Enemy. Check it out.
