Tea for the Jungle Fever
"I swear 'fore God, and four mo white people!"
Season 3 comes to a close! On this final entry in the Hood Classic Retrospective, Harlem's Heroes check out Spike Lee's 'Jungle Fever'. It's the longest movie yet, and easily the most jam-packed with thematic material. Luckily, the boys aren't handling it alone! They invite Wes Goodrich, a Brooklyn-bred writer-director currently enrolled in Columbia University's graduate filmmaking program, to help tackle the 2+ hour story. And they have the Queen of Queens ¡ABRIL! back on with them too. Does Spike have anything to say about race relations, and interracial relationships, that we didn't already know? Well you won't find answers here! Press play already!
FEAT. Jude, a product of real life jungle fever, revealing the truth behind some of the prejudices depicted in the film!
'Jungle Fever' is a 1991 romantic dramedy written and directed by Spike Lee; starring Wesley Snipes, Annabella Sciorra, John Turturro, Samuel L. Jackson, Lonette McKee, Ossie Davis, Frank Vincent, and Halle Berry, with Anthony Quinn and Ruby Dee.
