Tix: classiccinemas.com/nickBack to school month is also the month that Nick is hosting one of his favorite Spike Lee Joints ever. Criminally underrated, incredibly entertaining, loaded with GREAT songs and music, and a powerful message, this film is truly special.
"School Daze" is a 1988 American musical drama comedy film written and directed by Spike Lee and starring Lee along with Laurence Fishburne (credited as Larry Fishburne), Giancarlo Esposito, and Tisha Campbell. Released on February 12, 1988 by Columbia Pictures as Lee's second feature film, and based partly on his experiences as a student at Morehouse College in the Atlanta University Center during the 1980s, it is a story about undergraduates in a fraternity and sorority clashing with some of their classmates at a historically black college during homecoming week. It also touches upon issues of colorism,elitism, classism, political activism, hazing, groupthink, female self-esteem, social mobility, and hair texture bias within the
African-American community.
This gem is rarely shown on the big screen, so don't miss your chance to see this masterwork at the beautiful Lake Theater!
