I met Spike Lee about two weeks ago when he did a signing of "Miracle at St. Anna" DVD at the local borders, i wasnt to thrilled bout having to spend $20 on the dvd but its all good. I shook his hand and asked Spike how he thought the yankees were gonna do this year, he laughed and we made a couple comments bout Arod.
Later that night I went to a talk he was having at University of Delaware. It was very insightful mainly focusing on kids finding their true passion in life and staying in school, and a few things about the president.
Spike was very down to earth, didnt have a big head at all. Im italian and even though hes made some films that somewhat downgrade italians hes still my favorite director after marty. Miracle at St. Anna was good, nothing special. Do the right thing, He Got Game, and 25th Hour are my favorites from Spike.
