So, if you haven't heard already, Spike Lee's Red Hook Summer practically caused shock waves with its debut at Sundance yesterday. Critics seemed evenly split on whether or not it's a good film. A word that seems to pop up consistently...polarizing. Hmmm...we'll just have to wait for Tambay's colorful review. Until then, check out this conversation he had, along with Dee Rees, with David Carron Sunday afternoon.
