Actor and star Roger Guenveur Smith talks about the making of the film. “’Summer of Sam’ was shot almost entirely in the Country Club section of the Bronx where the first of the murders took place. ‘You could feel it among the people on the street who had actually lived through this summer and lost people to that man. On one level it's a movie; it's make-believe. But for some of the people in that community, it was a very real experience. It's difficult… University Event Topic: Arts. School: All Emory University.

Lee wanted to experiment with the new technology and tapped Ellen Kuras to serve as the film’s DP (Kuras also shot 4 Little Girls and Summer of Sam).

Released in 2000, Bamboozled garnered a split reception of its meaning, significance and impact on filmmaking and Black representation.

Film & Media The Emory Cinematheque Presents: BlackKklansman December 9, 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208 2018 | 135 min. | DCP Directed by Spike Lee Introduced by Dr. Ellen C. Scott (University of California, Los Angeles) BlacKkKlansman is a Spike Lee joint loosely based on Ron Stallworth’s memoir, Black Klansman, published in 2014. The story details the work life of Stallworth within the Colorado Springs Police Department in the 1970s. While there, as the department’s first Black detective, Stallworth attempts to infiltrate the local Ku Klux Klan. The debates around the film and Lee’s perceived return to an earlier verve make for a compelling viewing experience. Longtime Village Voice cultural critic and author Greg Tate believes that “On a meta-level, Spike and BlacKkKlansman’s real-life heroic subject share something in common, they’re both spooks who not only spat inside the door but blew off its hinges in the process.” However, scholar and writer Joshua Sperling notes that another filmmaker, Boots Riley, felt some… University Event Topic: Arts.
