“My biggest thing is that Michael Jackson is not up there"
Spike Lee is to have an exhibition part at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles.
During a private visit, Spike Lee looked at his career on display: “This is my pantheon”.
Visitors will be able to trace Lee’s career through props and memorabilia dating back to his 1983 award-winning student film “Joe’s Bed-Stuy Barbershop:
We Cut Heads,” moving through his features (“Malcolm X,” “Do the Right Thing,” “School Daze,” “Jungle Fever,” “Bamboozled” and his most recent, “Da 5 Bloods”),
documentaries (“4 Little Girls”) and his two Oscars — one honorary and one for his adapted screenplay for “BlacKkKlansman”).
“I’m elated,” said Lee. “I’m happy and honored that this exhibition is here for the opening of the museum.”
