Malcolm X 25th anniversary (1992)

[Apollo Kid]

Love this film. One of Spike's best. Denzel really took on that role like I haven't seen before. A remarkable performance. Damn shame the film or Denzel didn't get an Oscar nomination.

Always got when this scene came on

 

[Ol’Otis]

"Get your hand outta my pocket"

The dance hall scene

Spike has some of the best dancing sequences in modern movies.

Shorty and Flabbette

" You too big."

" I'm gonna come get you."

 

[Milk N Cookies]

Shorty and Flabbette

" You too big."

" I'm gonna come get you."

He kept curving ole girl cause she was chunky, but she was dancing like the slim chicks. Hell she was tossing Shorty around like he was the girl.

I always wonder what happen to Laura,West Indian Archie,Sophia,Rudy etc

Judging from the horrible shape he was in, Archie looked like he dropped dead moments after Malcolm left his apartment.

 

[Dirty D]

One of the GOAT movies ever. You'll never see a scene like this in an American movie today:

 

[Reggie]

Classic film and Spike should have won best director or Denzel should have won the best actor nomination or best picture or something. But know way this film shouldn't have won something at the Academy Awards that year.

On Black Self reliance when Warner Bros. Studio funding ran out.
Bill Cosby, Magic, Jordan, Oprah wrote a check.

 

[Asicz]

Spike Lee interviewed by Pharell How Denzel became Malcom X.

 

[Milk N Cookies]

Spile Lee interviewed by Pharell How Denzel became Malcom X.

So he really not gone say which speech it was that Denzel did the improv on???

 

[Black Lightning]

"Brothers and sisters, I am here to tell you that I charge the white man. I charge the white man with being the greatest murderer on earth. I charge the white man with being the greatest kidnapper on earth. There is no place in this world that this man can go and say he created peace and harmony. Everywhere he's gone, he's created havoc. Everywhere he's gone, he's created destruction. So I charge him. I charge him with being the greatest kidnapper on this earth! I charge him with being the greatest murderer on this earth! I charge him with being the greatest robber and enslaver on this earth! I charge the white man with being the greatest swine-eater on this earth. The greatest drunkard on this earth! He can't deny the charges! You can't deny the charges! We're the living proof *of* those charges! You and I are the proof. You're not an American, you are the victim of America. You didn't have a choice coming over here. He didn't say, "Black man, black woman, come on over and help me build America". He said, "******, get down in the bottom of that boat and I'm taking you over there to help me build America". Being born here does not make you an American. I am not an American, you are not an American. You are one of the 22 million black people who are the *victims* of America. You and I, we've never see any democracy. We didn't see any... democracy on the-the cotton fields of Georgia, wasn't no democracy down there. We didn't see any democracy. We didn't see any democracy on the streets of Harlem or on the streets of Brooklyn or on the streets of Detroit or Chicago. Ain't no democracy down there. No, we've never seem democracy! All we've seen is hypocrisy! We don't see any American Dream. We've experienced only the American Nightmare!"
