Do The Right Thing' Was My First Union Film. I Looked At The Rosters, And For The Most Part, It Was White Males. Especially The Teamsters. So We Had Some Conversations.

I Believe In Destiny. But I Also Believe That You Can’t Just Sit Back And Let Destiny Happen. A Lot Of Times, An Opportunity Might Fall Into Your Lap, But You Have To Be Ready For That Opportunity.

People Sometimes Forget All The Films That We've Done. They Remember The Likes Of 'malcolm X' And 'do The Right Thing.' But I've Been Working Since 1986. From The Beginning, I Was Determined To Not Just Be A Flash In The Pan. I've Got To Keep Up With Woody Allen. He's Lapping Me.
