You can never tell what’s in a man’s mind

and if he’s from Harlem, there’s no use of even tryin

Love that song

I like how in this movie Wesley Snipes and Denzel Washington had their issues with one another but it never was to the point they were enemies and in general treated each other with respect.

I mean that perfectly captured that era though. People could have issues, but not pray on their downfall.

Another thing is before Sam Jackson became a huge star he was the king of small parts/cameo. He appears out of nowhere in Mo Better Blues. The only time we have seen him and Denzel on screen together, which is shame.

cameos/small parts in Raw by Eddie Murphy, Coming to America, Menace to Society, Juice, Goodfellas, and Jurassic Park. Those are some hits and legendary films

Its wild cause I legit thought Sam Jackson was a star. Not realizing his star status didnt really take off until Pulp Fiction.

As a trumpet player and jazz lover I thought I WAS Bleek for a moment.

Branford Marsalis and Terrance Blanchard killed that soundtrack.

 

[AJtheOne]

Definitely one of my fav Denzel movies easily.

Shyt is a vibe for real.

 

[Sane]

One of my favourite Spike Lee movies. Classic

 

[Jean toomer]

Cynda Williams floated on that, and looked amazing as well

Always thought she should’ve had a much bigger career. Very talented singer and actress. Very stylish movie. Lived the cinématographe.

Outside of Inside Man, this is my favorite Spike Lee movie. I ain’t realize that Bleek’s pop was Pretty Tony from The Mack.
