Grew up on Lexington Ave bet. Throop & Tompkins Aves (5 blocks away from where DTRT was filmed). I was 14 the summer they filmed this movie (in '88), I turned 15 later on that year (in October). I, along with my "homies," used to run down to Quincy St and Stuyvesant to see what they were filming but we could NEVER see ANYTHING! Never saw Spike, Rosie, Martin, Giancarlo, Bill Nunn (Radio Raheem), Ossie or Ruby. We could HEAR them, tho (acting). I remember those bright ass lights. When the movie came out the next year, we (my friends and I) were like "Oh, so THIS is what they was (were) making!" Watching this brought back a lot of memories. Never realized how bad Bed-Stuy looked, back then, until I see footage and photos of it. A lot has changed in Bed-Stuy since the '80s. I try not to live in the past, but the "old" Bed-Stuy is what I have a connection to. Born (in '73) and bred in the Stuy. Lived on Lex Ave from '83-'99, now I'm out in Jamaica, Queens. Whenever I visit the Stuy, I don't even feel like I belong there. The whole vibe is different.

I'm from ENY, now in NC. I go back to BK several times a year. Bed Stuy damn sure has changed in MANY ways, good bad, and questionable..but change was inevitable. Some of my friends from back in the day still own (from their parents), live and a few copped some of those Brownstones, BEFORE the gentrification and "influx". Overall, Do The Right Thing was a 99.9% accurate description of NYC, at that time. The buzz was CRAZY about Spike then.The "streets" were talking back then, minus social media...and when that movie came out? The hype and lines were bananas.

How can you not love Ossie Davis ? His voice his happy face. I haven't always agreed with some of Spike's views on some issues but I believe him to be a master film maker. What is a film ? It's just a bunch of scenes put together but it takes a talent to make it flow and have a tension to it where you're awaiting what's going to happen next. And Spike knows how to do it

I think this is one of the best making of films I've ever seen.

It's as much a film about the people as it is about the movie.

Even though it was only 8 yrs apart the aesthetic of the 80s just looked so different to my young mind then the 90s. At this time they would play it on hbo I would also binge watch Pop Up video which would show 80s vids and for the first time I would see 80s version of Janet Jackson, Jackson 5 torture video, Culture club and boy George vids etc. I been in love with the 80s ever since 😢.

Danny Aiello view was that Sal wasn’t racist and sought to make him likeable, added to the complexity of the character. A part of you wanted to believe he wasn’t racist. Sal was also likeable. It made for a very complex, memorable character where people still disagree with whether he was actually racist or not. The disagreement and tension around whether Sal was racist, between Spike and Aiello, really worked and made him a more ambiguous, interesting character. Aiello was also perfectly cast, because Sal also had a powerful personality, which made him seem intimidating, yet there was something still likeable about him.

This movie is important, timeless, and aged like the finest wine. Spike Lee created some of THE greatest films, and captured an era with perfection- the dialogue, the angles, the film used, the direction, and concepts/stories these films told can’t be reproduced. Very important films. Do The Right Thing Mo Better Blues She Gotta Have it Crooklyn Clockers Jungle Fever Malcolm X .. I’d even say Inside Man, was a different approach for Spike, and he made something intriguing with the misdirection approach. Unlike his other films, this one still held a message of importance.. But, the one many seem to overlook at times, is Crooklyn, AND!!! Mo Better Blues, my God how incredible Mo Better Blues is of a piece of cinema, the character Bleek, and how Denzel portrayed him was perfection.. including the entire cast, perfection, and a phenomenal movie that doesn’t get the recognition I felt it deserved. RedHook was a good movie, but imo, didn’t hold up to the rest of his legacy..

I love Rosie Perez so much. She's so great in this. I recently watched a production of Raisin in the Sun, and I think Do the Right Thing is almost directly talking to that play/movie.

Man, what a behind-the-scenes documentary. It’s so fascinating! And seeing the rehearsals, a young Giancarlo Esposito, unbelievable.

@13:26 so Giancarlo was born in Italy. Young Esposito is awesome! Check out the early 90s film "Fresh" where he plays a NY drug dealer

Amazing behind the scenes stuff of an amazing film! I'm always interested in this kind of stuff and I have worked BG on films and TV in NYC. It's not an easy thing to do because it is a long day and you really aren't told what the whole picture is about-you are just told to do something over and over again for the scene. Let me also say that I had some friends who did work BG on this as firemen who put the fire out. They were real firemen, by the way. Some also worked on Malcolm X in the same role.

Fun fact: the cast & crew of this movie (Cast: Bill Nunn, and Samuel L. Jackson, & film crew: Ernest Dickerson, Darnell Martin, Abdul Malik Abbott, and Robin Michele Downes) worked on a horror film Def By Temptation months before Do The Right Thing was filmed, both films took place in Bed-Stuy.

Crazy but real talk. Back then, a LOT natives from Stuy, Brownsville, ENY, Ft Green said the same thing YET did one of 3 things: 1) Moved out the hood 2)Complained and did nothing to improve the conditions 3) Got priced out of the hood, becasue "other" people with money saw the VALUE, that they never really saw. Just kept that ghetto mentality. Bed Stuy ain't like that now.

I am from Brownsville but I stayed in Sumner Projects with my aunt. I was 18 going on 19 in 1988. I remember how bad all the hoods looked but it was home and I knew mostly everyone from E.N.Y to Fort Green. Ingersol and Walt Whitman Houses. I loved growing up in Brooklyn New York.

"I'm capable of saying those words. I'm capable. And I have said 'em. But I'm not a racist." That's a great way of explaining that. I don't know anyone that hasn't said something out of anger or just meanness about some other group of people in a moment of emotion. I don't think taking someone at their very worst and defining them entirely is a good idea. I've said stuff I wish I hadn't without wishing complete ill will against an entire group of people.

When she was saying when her mother came there it was gaslight and carriages , I forgot for a second this was filmed in circa 86-87…she was probably in her 50’s…so her moms probably came there when she was a child in the late 1890’s/early 1900’s
