Apple’s Beats Music made a documentary on Spike Lee’s ‘Do The Right Thing’

Apples Beats Music has put together a short documentary for the 25th anniversary of Do The Right Thing, Spike Lees acclaimed film on race relations in New York City. The nearly 23-minute film brings Lee and a number of other members of cast and crew from the film back to the iconic Bed-Stuy block where it was shot, leaving them to reminisce on its production and impact. While its certainly a bit strange to see a documentary on a movie come out of Beats Music, its creation makes enough sense: one of Beats strongest assets is its cultural cachet, and associating itself with a smart and edgy film like Do The Right Thing (and, of course, its director) only helps to build that out even further. The film also culminates into a performance that Beats sponsored, featuring Dave Chappelle, Mos Def, and Public Enemy, among others, and that certainly doesnt hurt either.
