  • Night of the hunter...

  • This was taken right out of Night Of The Hunter.

  • @hampsterfuledrocket that's what I was thinking what would happen if Raheem killed sal would it have be okay then

  • he look like T.J. Combo from killer instinct

  • 2DEEP4U

  • man i love this movie and i was born in 94 lol aint that the truth Ruth

  • Nice "Night of the Hunter" reference.

  • Spike Lee taking notes from Mr Mitchum. Don't believe me, watch Night of the Hunter. 

  • YALL NO THERES A SEQUEL 2 THIS MOVIE CALLED "RED HOOK SUMMER" CHECK OUT THE PAGE AND LIKE ON FACEBOOK..

  • I did not understand this movie at all.. Is it just showing what real life was really like back then there?

  • @xXTrueSShotX how old are you like 12?

  • "Ey put some extra mussarelli on that muhFUcka!"

  • right on brother

  • RADIO RAHEEEEEEM!!!!! RADIO RAHEEEEM!

  • If nobody pulled Radio off of Sal, would he have choked him to death? It sure looked that way to me.

  • Damnit people, this was like a trailer for me....I read down the comments and get a huge spoiler. ;-;

  • And to think, he'd still be alive if he'd just turned down his goddamn radio while inside of the pizzaria. I can't sympathize with that kind of ignorance. BTW, I came across a list of the top 100 rap songs ever made. Fight the power was #1. Why? The song sounds like a bunch of samples thrown into blender. I applauded when the radio got smashed!

  • This pays homage to the movie "Night of The Hunter". It's basically a modernization and environmental adaption of it.

  • @braindance77 What? No it isn't.

  • @CCubed1717 No, it is. The original is even in the suggested videos section.

  • @braindance77 No, you're not getting me. I know it's a reference to The Night of the Hunter, because NOTH is one of my all-time favorite movies. But in Do the Right Thing it's an homage, and has nothing to do with environmentalism.

  • @CCubed1717 I mean environmental in the sense that it is a cultural adaption. The environment being 1990s New York.

  • @braindance77 Oh, my bad. I misunderstood. Sorry 'bout that.

  • 240p we meet again:/

  • @kingBuzzo88 why you watching this and being a following herb like everyone else go get likes in real life

  • the matter of fact is ...FIGHT THE PWOER

  • Great scene!

  • does any 1 know where u could copp a four fingered ring

  • @johnnycage435: "Jeweler's Row", Center City Philadelphia, Pa

  • righteous

    

  • It's the opposite for me since I'm left-handed, but hell, this is a damn good rendition of "Night of the Hunter".

  • The left hand is kickin' much ass...

    

  • THIS SHIT IS DEEP

  • One of the realest scenes of all time. i don't care what nobody says. LOVE Conquers hate.

  • My favorite scene from the whole movie

  • Everytime I see Spike Lee he reminds me of a part on Major Payne when MP says "alot of small people can do big things, little red riding hood, spike lee, the little rascals" LMAO

  • Luckily, I don't hate this scene because if I hated it...

    I love this scene, man.

  • I can't believe this guy is my uncle

  • Love conquers hate. I love ya'll.

  • Radio Raheem like a MuFukka!!!

  • @QueenSemiramis What is addi Muhfukka?

  • now I use both hands I could flex both of my biceps.

  • radio raheem like a mufucka

  • Radio Raheem... keeper of the drum

  • Bill Nunn was almost 40 when he played this role if I'm not mistaken. Dude looked ageless.

  • @Hibbs4Prez has was 36, thanks for making me google it. i thought he was like 24 tops lol

  • he wouldnt have died if police brutality didnt exist. bottom line

  • @joelelsd /watch?v=gH9k8L3oDa4

  • The Dunna Man.

  • Fuck radio raheem. He did not deserve to die but he was an ignorant douche

  • @AirKangLocker I don't know juay I like raheem, but I do. why is he an ignorant douche? I don't currently see it...

  • @TheJb1rd Him and that guy with the glasses came to the pizza shop looking for trouble.. He wouldnt have died if he never had gone there

  • @mamobster1500 yeah, but he shouldn't have died regardless. They're enjoyable characters despite the fact that one may not agree with their ideals. The story of radio raheem and his symbolism make him necessary for the story.

  • @TheJb1rd  Yeah, I liked him too, even tho he pissed me off. He wasn't ignorant, just had a very short fuse.

  • @AirKangLocker he got mad at the peurto ricans because they were making fun of him as he was standing on their stoop BLASTING HIS BOOMBOX. Then he takes his anger on the koreans and make racist comments. Then he goes to Sal's pizza with BLASTING HIS BOOMBOX and with Sal screaming like hell, he finally turns it off. He gets mad at Sal for making him turn off his radio, a scar to his ego, and decides to storm to Sal's at midnight and talk shit and blasting the boombox right in front of sal's face.

  • @AirKangLocker radio raheem is the best and cool radio raheem rip and airkang deel with the fact that raheem is a symbol of joy in dis movie

  • you have no idea how much balls i tripped when this scene came on while i was watching this film during 4/20

  • This monologue was originally in1955 a film called "Night of the Hunter" ...c'mon Spike Lee thats weak....

  • @inline440 yes it is true that spike lee copied this concept from Charles Laughton 1955 film but i feel that with the representation of the 4 finger rings he was able to pay homage to the late filmmaker and bring it to audences of that time i dont feel that he was trying to claim that he thought of this himself....simalar to the 1932 scarface and the 1983 scarface.....

  • @ejrocks123 Was the Love/Hate speech in the book that NIght of the Hunter was based on?

  • @inline440 It's called an "homage", dummy.

  • @inline440

    Honestly, if you're a Spike Lee fan and a movie buff, you'll see so many references to earlier films. That's just his way of paying respect to the films that changed his perspective on film making and life.

  • @inline440 thats right, robert m-something, he had it tattoo on his knuckles,

  • Alot of people seem to have a problem with this film and the message they think it's giving but I think one of the nice things about Spike Lee 'joints' is that they're not black and white, there aren't good and bad characters, most of them are more complex than that just like in real life, Mookie is a great example, I found him really likable but as Spike Lee says he's always out for making that money, getting paid above all else.

    Awesome film, awesome scene. Bed Stuy Do or Die.

  • i still wwant a four fingered ring

  • love kickin much asss...

  • I fucking love Do the Right Thing. Fucking boss movie and Radiohead Rahim is my favourite character. Boss guy

  • i want that LOVE ring :>)--fight the power! toast!

  • i noticed that in at least three spike lee movies i have seen there is a little kids drawing on the sidewalk with chalk. i remeber doing that as a young gil

  • @mjjcng8958 lol what kid never did that?

  • I can't be the only one that wants those rings...

  • Anyone else notice this is not original? It is pretty much a copy from a scene of The Night of The Hunter from 1955

  • @Honideath yup my dad has the movie

  • @Honideath maybe more like a homage to the movie maybe?

  • @Honideath Spike lee acknowledges the 'Hunter' movie in the dvd audio commentary. It's not the same only inspired by.

  • Those pizzas are getting cold..

  • @applepiendasky those pizzas are dead and gone

  • true story

  • that was a nice scene!

  • My fav. scene.

  • Good night FB family

  • "i will remember this experience for the rest of my life"

  • The 'Love and Hate' story was done years before they did it in DTRT. Robert Mitchum in 'The Night of the Hunter' one of my fav movies. Just YouTube: 'Love Hate Night Hunter'

  • This is one of the best movies ever made. It makes u think!

  • Radio Raheem's the story of Love and Hate

  • This guy had an attitude problem. Maybe if the poor brother had a father to whip his ass and teach him respect, he would have treated those Korean shopkeepers and Sal with more respect. Sadly for him, he meets an untimely death because his valued posession ( a fuckin ghettoblaster) was destroyed and he decides to go on a rampage.

  • Almost every person had an attitude problem. Are you implying that HE was the only person with an attitude? The whole point of his character is that there could be no Radio Raheem without his, as you call, "ghettoblaster". The same thing is implied with man and soul. How could man exist without soul? And last I checked, Sal was the one who started the "rampage" by destroying the radio in the first place.

  • Hollywood wouldnt even recognized this for a nomination...RIP Radio Raheem

  • My favorite scene! :)

  • this scene randomly popped in my head.

    HATE- it was with this hand Cane iced his brother

  • @HaraJukeybarbee Me too...I don't know why I just looked it up after 10 years...O_o

  • this is a great scene. Robert mitchum did this same thing in a movie long ago called "The Night Of The Hunter" but with a more reserved approach and with Love and Hate tattoo'd on his knuckles

  • the neighborhood dont even look like that anymore :(

  • Love is indifferent - HUEY P NEWTON

  • @PedoLouie Nice word choice, ass.

  • Right hand, love for you. left hand, i hate you. just shook your hand with both, what do now?

  • looks like it says Cove...

  • Watch This MOvies full on

    surfonlinemedia. com/video/3858-I_Hate_Luv_Stor­ys_2010.html

  • @nomi1122 That's not what this movie is. GTFO and STFU spambot.

  • MADD DEEP

  • Is that from "Night of the Hunter"? The Robert Mitchum film?

  • @eatbbq4040 Yes, it's the same love/hate scene from Night of the Hunter, almost word-for-word except Robert Mitchum has love and hate wrestle, and Radio Raheem has them fighting like Ali.

  • Here's a question for all of my hardcore film fans: Does anyone know the significance of the first scene where Spike walks through the girls chalk drawing? (Hint: Its a shot out to another classic NY film)

    Watch how he steps right on the sunshine....Spikes films have so many levels...greatness!

  • @boutitbrotha what movie?

  • @DoDoubleGc : Its a contridiction to the opening scene "prologue" of Westside Story. In the scene the gang notices a girl drawing in chalk on the playground, the leader of the gang thinks about walking through the drawing but changes his mind and walks around it. Critics of the film said that this was intentionally put in the film to show the gang's respect for the "innocence of childhood." In this film Spike steps directly on the girl's sun. I guess in the 80's respect for childhood is no more.

  • @boutitbrotha fill me in

  • @mrtony80 Its a contridiction to the opening scene "prologue" of Westside Story.

  • Always...

  • A Spike Lee joint...

  • There are a lot of african people here in Italy. Although I do not properly love them, I think here they generally do not harm anybody. There was a young boy trying to sell me his magazines, for a very long time, I just gave him a coin, without buying anything. Recently, I started talking to him, he is a nice boy, he just can't find a proper job here, because of matter of citizenship, police, permissions.

  • è per questo che dici che "non li ami"..perchè non ci conosci..non ti sto parlando degli africani in generale, perchè tra arabi e neri c'è un abisso di differenze proprio nel modo di pensare..fidati, conosci gli africani, e la visione a 180° che hai di loro si aprirà a 360°. te lo dico io che sono figlio di senegalese e italiana, cresciuto tra gli italiani come un italiano ma con la pelle nera, e che non taglierà mai il legame con le sue radici

  • @leotrdo People are human, you should just love them but all you see is a pigment.

  • God bless the love

  • the character radio raheem seemed a little slow to me. anyone else think so too?

    great movie tho, another classic spike lee joint!

  • Radio RAAAAHEEEEM!

  • wtf thats crazy

  • You can search on Youtube for "Love - Hate: Night of the Hunter" if you want to see the original Love/Hate speech from said movie.

    Still interesting to choose that scene and modernize it a bit.

  • Watch "Night of the Hunter" a movie from 1955 about a preacher that kills hookers. This scene about Love Hate was stolen directly and almost word for word, motion for motion, straight from that movie. So sad, but everytime I watch an old movie or listen to an old song is seems someone has jacked some shit and re-used it.

  • @dashj00 Stolen!?

    Yeah, and I suppose The Untouchables "stole" its ending from Bronenosets Potyomkin, too, right?

    What are you complaining about, anyway? Night of the Hunter is still one of the greatest movies of all time and is still available for you to view in its original form as many times as you wish no matter how many modern spins are done on a single speech from the movie.

  • @dashj00 have you ever thought that Spike Lee might have been trying to pay respects to the movie that did it first????

  • RIP Raheem! All he wanted was a slice of pizza and some awesome music to enjoy it with lol The power fought him :(

  • @AAErikCO you are kidding right? obviously he was murdered by the cops but this guy was a massive asshole. he was warned many time to turn off his radio and the italian had enough and broke it. it was obvious raheem had no respect for anyone. if someone was playing heavy metal in the italian restaurant you think it would be any different?

  • @bonfirejovi

    Was a joke bud :) Didn't u see the lol?

  • @AAErikCO ok I cant really tell through the internet though can I? I apologize then.

  • dude its a movie calm the hell down

  • As much as I disliked Radio Raheem, when reflecting back on the film you just have to take a step back and view what really happened. Raheem did not deserve to die. He WAS brutally murdered by the police.

    I agree with your comment, but a lot of audiences seem to ignore the crime that was Raheem's murder.

    This movie is not without hope and humor (some of the FUNNIEST lines ever!), but there are some scenes like Sal's pizzeria being destroyed that just break your heart.

  • @ChrisnSnoop

    Even more people seem to ignore that he was trying to kill Sal before the police came.

  • @help4343 and that one of the cops was black

  • @NHLman27

    There was one black woman police officer seen very briefly after the other police cars take off. There are at least six white officers that shown more.

  • @ChrisnSnoop

    I would characterize it as manslaughter rather than murder. The police officer went too far in trying to restrain Raheem. I don't think he was purposefully trying to kill him.

  • dam get down keep it pimping much love from chitown

  • commovente

  • THAT's THE HYPE!

    (smiles)

    ~Tiffany~

  • Well , you cannot avoid love , hate , happy , unhappy etc. because its come from the mind , the mind comes from consciousness , consciousness come from mental formation , mental formation comes from perception , perception comes from sensation , sensation comes from five organs of sense .

    nutier

  • i agree. show a movie with some meaning to it.

  • Damn, they should play classic movies like these in theatres. Like for a nice cheap price.

  • r.i.p. radio raheem

  • if this is knowledge brothas hip hop was knowledge

  • i wish there were more movies today like this.

  • damn son.... wheres my pizza?

  • tarrantinos films are littered with homages. he even says so himself. thats is all spike does here. why cant a director do that? whats la problema?

  • keep your guard up you idiot

  • hahahaha lol :)

  • Nuff said...

  • R.I.P.

    :(

  • now the Pizza is cold......

  • "k.o by love!"

  • Spike pays homage to Night of the Hunter.

    Educate yourself.

  • this is probably my favorite scene from the movie

  • Fight the HATE!

  • i got that tshirt :D

  • omg where'd you get it?!

    sell it to me please!

  • "it is with this hand that i begin to label my waffle. it is with this hand that i finish labeling my waffle" does anybody else remember the episode of dexters lab where dexter pulled a radio raheem

  • where can i find that

  • It's in episode 20, the short is called "labels". I love how little kids shows use to have so many references for the parents watching.

  • yea!!! i LOVED that cartoon man!

  • @kingkye262

    Holy crap, YES! That's the episode when he had problems with Dee-Dee taking his stuff! It started with waffles, then to labels then chaos! Funny episode! LOL

    Until now, I had no idea "Dexter's Lab" parodied this scene XD

  • @kingkye262 what episode was that?

  • @noodlez4me It was a first season episode called labels, it actually came on boomerang a couple of days ago.

  • @kingkye262 OHHH SHIET YES! when him and dee dee wanted to put their names on everything.

  • @kingkye262 Is that from when Dexter and Dee-dee were labeling their possesions? :L

  • @kingkye262 Do you remember The Night of the Hunter?

  • awesome scene from an aweseome film. love and hate - always at war? the duality of man. We choose what we will be, every moment of every day. To hate is easy, because it feels good to strike at the great enemy (fear). To love is difficult, as it challenges us to open our fist and trust blindly. I look at my closed fist and see in it the world, locked in fear and anger. I look at my open hand and see the universe, open to possibility. Peace.

  • well said!

  • A Classic

  • I like the look and sound of this film and do believe it has a great message for people to grasp.

    But me being the way I am I am fuelled with rage and not love. I don't hate everyone just those who wrong me, and those who look down on me. For they will suffer the most from me when the time is right for me to strike.

    For those that I love, I protect til the the day I die, hopefully there will be more of them than those I hate.

  • License Plates state "40 ACREZ".. CLASSIC SPIKE LEE JOINT!

  • kicking much ass

  • real talk dis speech made me think and made do the right thing my favorite movie

  • This scene is such a paradox. Even if love wins, it is still communicated through brass knuckles.

  • @drmurphysjello Not a paradox. Lee just put the words on brass knuckles to make it relevant to the character, it's what he would be into, it's what was popular at the time. The scene is taken from a film called The Night of the Hunter.

  • @drmurphysjello those are not brass knuckles...

    they are just a 4 finger ring...

  • @drmurphysjello They're not brass knuckles. They are four finger rings.

  • @drmurphysjello

    life is a struggle, what the fuck u gonna do now ?
