Hows Spike Lee as a director?
“Spike is fantastic. He really encourages actors to take risks and to create characters.” He seems to have lost the golden touch of late. And surprisingly enough there seems to be a whole generation not familiar with his film work. “He loves basketball so I’ll use a basketball analogy. He’s like a pure shooter who’s a streak shooter. Streak shooters can shoot really well, but what makes them, like Allen Iverson, is they just shoot. Whether they’re making it or missing it. Spike is not holding on to his projects. He’s been averaging at least one a year. He is by far the most prolific top level filmmaker in the world. For a second, Woody Allen was around that kind of pace, but certainly not even close any more.
