Watch This With Rick Ramos

Spike Lee Returns to a Sweltering New York Summer - Summer of Sam (1999)

On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Ibrahim & I continue looking at the paranoia of the summer of '77. In that year, David Berkowitz would spread fear and terror throughout the boroughs of New York City. Murdering random couples and women, The Son of Sam (as he was known), would create an environment of paranoia and fear that is expertly recreated by filmmaker Spike Lee in one of his most underrated and underseen pictures. This is an incredible film from an exceptional American filmmaker. Take a listen as Ibrahim & I discuss it's cinematic and power and importance in Lee's filmography.
