Critical Score: 80
Starring: Adam Driver, John David Washington
Director: Spike Lee
Set in the days of the KKK – early 1970’s; tells the story of 2 detectives in Colorado Springs who infiltrate the KKK. Definitely typical of a Spike Lee movie that deals with race, but doesn’t exactly say how to fix it or what to do about it – just exposes it. Well acted throughout the movie and an interesting story with David Duke, played by Topher Grace, expressing his racist views and the rituals of the KKK. Mr. Lee ends the movie with actual footage of the real David Duke and the 2017 scene in Charlottesville, VA; he also reveals Donald Trump justifying the actions and the quality of the protesters on “both sides”.
