Spike Lee

I am very fortunate I can send my kids to private school, but everybody does not have the money. If you cannot get your kid in a good school today, your kids are going to be behind the eight ball. ↗

I live in New York City, the stories of my films take place in New York; I'm a New York filmmaker. ↗

I tend to favour films that have multiple plot and story lines, multiple characters and ensemble pieces. ↗

I think it is very important that films make people look at what they've forgotten. ↗
