Amongst black people, you have always heard it said that once a black man reaches a certain level, especially if you are an entertainer, you get a white trophy woman. I didn't make that up.

For me, I believe in God, God is real.

'25th Hour,' like a lot of my films, takes place in New York City. I've been very fortunate to make films in the city that I live. I mean, it's great going home at night instead of being on location.

I don't like acting not in front of the camera.
Spike Lee
Image
Sex and racism have always been tied together. Look at the thousands of black men who got lynched and castrated. The reason the Klan came into being was to protect white southern women.
Spike Lee
Image
I've always tried to - when I've been able to - support young artists, no matter what medium.
Spike Lee
Image
I am a hybrid. I do independent films and also do Hollywood films - I love them both.
Spike Lee
Image
It comes down to this: black people were stripped of our identities when we were brought here, and it's been a quest since then to define who we are.
Spike Lee
Image
I'm an independent filmmaker with complete creative control of my films. I hire who I want. I have final cut. But at the same time, I go directly to Hollywood for financing and distribution. I find it's best for me to work within the Hollywood system.

Image
We've got to turn this backward thinking around where ignorance is championed over intelligence. Young black kids being ridiculed by their peers for getting A's and speaking proper English: that's criminal.

I give interracial couples a look. Daggers. They get uncomfortable when they see me on the street.

I like people to look like they're floating.
