Questions About This Episode

What is FFR 272: Crooklyn about?

It was an absolute joy to spend time in the world of Spike Lee's 1994 bildungsroman Crooklyn . Co-written by Lee and his siblings Joie and Cinqué, the film follows nine-year-old Troy navigating herself, her neighborhood, and her extended family in 1973. We're refreshed to see Lee's rich visual language as the backdrop for a young girl as the hero of the story of growing up. Especially when so many other auteur's attempts at this have left us feeling unimpressed. It's a messy movie, sure, but beautifully shot by Arthur Jafa ( Daughters of the Dust ) with knockout performances from the kids to the parents—played by Alfre Woodard and Delroy Lindo.
