"She's gotta have it" and "Mo better Blues" are indeed masterpieces. Granted O Davis wasn't in them...

Additionally, Spike Lee can't be credited with Bubba Ho-Tep. Am I missing something? Spike Lee Ossie Davis Film Festival.

Mr. Davis's Ouput w/ Spike far exceeds (quantity is fact, quality is my opinion) the other stuff you guys were talking about, although Bubba Ho Tep does kick ass. a brief (and possibly incomplete sumary: She Hate Me (2004) .... Judge Buchanan Get on the Bus (1996) .... Jeremiah Jungle Fever (1991) .... The Good Reverend Doctor Purify Malcolm X (1992) .... Eulogy Performer Do the Right Thing (1989) ....

Well, I spose I shoulda titled my thread differently.... but the Ossie Davis appearances in films that really touched me the most I had assosciated w/ Spike.... Could we just let Spike live and pray he focuses more on making films than being a nincompoop in the press? _______________________________ Jazz is not dead...it just smells funny. - F. Zappa
