Right Now A Lot Of People Are

Do The Right Thing' Was My First Union Film. I Looked At The Rosters, And For The Most Part, It Was White Males. Especially The Teamsters. So We Had Some Conversations.

My Grandmother Lived To Be 100 Years Old. Her Grandmother Was A Slave, Yet She Was A College Graduate In The Spellman Class Of 1917. She Taught Art For 50 Years And She Saved Her Social Security Checks For Her Children's Education.

I'm A Storyteller, And There's Some Genres I Like. I Don't Think I'm Ever Going To Do Science Fiction, But I Want To Do A Musical One Day. I Want To Tell Stories, I Don't Really Try To Get Boxed In By A Specific Genre.

People Sometimes Forget All The Films That We've Done. They Remember The Likes Of 'malcolm X' And 'do The Right Thing.' But I've Been Working Since 1986. From The Beginning, I Was Determined To Not Just Be A Flash In The Pan. I've Got To Keep Up With Woody Allen. He's Lapping Me.

For Me, I Believe In God, God Is Real.
