Do the Right Thing (1989)

Director: Spike Lee
Cast: Spike Lee, Danny Aiello and John Turturro

This film exposed the deep chasms undermining race relations in America and defined Lee as a provocative, honest and expressive filmmaker. Packed with gutsy, memorable moments, innovative camerawork and stellar acting, the slice-of-life drama erupts into one of cinema's most-talked-about endings.
