Spike Lee

Lee’s film about five African American vets who return to Vietnam is one of his great works.

“Will History Stop Repeating Itself?” links recent real-world acts with a scene from Lee’s ‘Do the Right Thing.’

Lee’s latest is about a platoon of veterans who return to Vietnam in search for buried treasure.

Aiello also appeared in ‘The Purple Rose of Cairo’ and ‘Once Upon a Time in America.’

He’s never been nominated for Best Picture before either.
