Watched this again for the first time in awhile. One thing that never struck me before was just how funny this movie is. Very dark and understated humor, It could almost be a satire.
Seriously, Ossie Davis' character, the combination of his over the top religious sermons and the gospel music playing in the background whenever he spit that ether was hilarious to me.
Wesley Snipes character being the stereotypical successful black man obsessed with proving that he's still "down" and coming across as conscious while still having severe color issues and lusting after white women and light skinned women
Angie being the typical naive white girl who "doesn't see race" and thinks love will conquer all
Paulie trying to rise above his ignorant ass family and friends
The Taj Mahal scene, probably the greatest scene depicting the crack era in cinematic history
The annoying racist Italians, the War Council scene with the black women, Gator's last dance, etc.
Movie is brilliant and in my top five best Spike Lee flicks
