Always so happy to read in depth stuff about Jelinek. Thank you. Also I’m embarrassed as a cinema prof who has shown do the right thing so many times, that I didn’t realize it’s homage. So thank you for that too
Thanks, glad to hear. I did a really deep dive into that film a number of years ago for a presentation on noise politics. Lee is really one of those auteur film makers who loves to quote, but I think the intertextuality of his work is also conversant with hip hop culture and gives it extra depth, compared to, say, Woody Allen or Tarantino.
