Spike Lee's new movie Red Hook Summer (spoilers)

Posted by Jape on 2012-January-23 22:23:32 EST, Monday

Spike Lee's new movie Red Hook Summer premiered at Sundance last night. There were reportedly tons of walk-outs some even before it is was revealed the film's star Clarke Peters' character was a pedophile. Now, I haven't seen the movie so I don't know if the movie is more anti-ped propoganda or if it takes a stand against anti-ped propoganda (considering the way Spike talked about the character being "an honest, compelling, sympathetic portrayal of a pedophile", I'm guessing the latter)

of course, I'm not really a Spike Lee fan but I'm interested in how the buzz regardingthe film develops.....
