"I owe you 50 dollars"
The fire destroys Sal's pizzeria, but Mookie still needs to get paid.
Do The Right Thing (1989): Salvatore "Sal" Fragione (Danny Aiello) is the Italian owner of a pizzeria in Brooklyn. A neighborhood local, Buggin' Out (Giancarlo Esposito), becomes upset when he sees that the pizzeria's Wall of Fame exhibits only Italian actors. Buggin' Out believes a pizzeria in a black neighborhood should showcase black actors, but Sal disagrees. The wall becomes a symbol of racism and hate to Buggin' Out and to other people in the neighborhood, and tensions rise.

The most unrealistic thing in this movie is still trying to believe Spike Lee got a woman like prime Rosie Perez.

To be honest, Bugging Out started all of it with the wall. That is Sal's Joint and he can do with the wall as he wants.

@stephengrigg5988 22 күн бұрын

Yeah, the "inciting incident" is generally sooner than the one history remembers. Radio Raheem is the catalyst for the riot.. or it could be when Sal used the N word.. or when Buggin Out had an issue with the wall... or literally anything in the decades of racial friction beforehand. And that notion rings true to this day. George Floyd will be the name remembered, but it was bubbling under the surface ready to explode for years.

Mookie was on Sal's side during the argument, but after Sal lost it called everyone the n-word Mookie kind of looked at him differently, but it was a valid reaction from both sides. Mookie felt hurt and wanted revenge for his friend's death, so instead of hurting Sal he destroyed what Sal loved, the pizzeria.
