Vidiots welcomes back comedian, actor, and Founding Member Ify Nwadiwe for a special Juneteenth screening of Spike Lee’s masterpiece Do The Right Thing on glorious 35mm film. The film will be preceded by a conversation with actor and musician Richard Edson.
Tensions rise to a boiling point on a hot night at a Brooklyn pizzeria. Ruffled by the lack of diversity on the pizza joint’s Wall of Fame, the corner eatery becomes a symbol and battleground for simmering racial tensions to arise – to a devastating climax that still rings too true. Ranked 24th in Sight and Sound’s list of greatest movies of all time, Lee’s magnum opus remains an entertaining, powerful, and relevant film 25 years on.
