According to the Internet Movie Database, Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing was relased on June 30, 1989. Wow, I can hardly believe that it has been out for 20 years! I can't recall if I saw it in the theaters that summer, but definitely remember a summer 1990 discussion with my Dad and grandfather about why Mookie tossed the garbage can, so at the very least it's been in my life for 19 years. Fight the Power!
