Do the Right Thing

Spike Lee used many interesting cinematic effects in his film Do the Right Thing, especially whenever Radio Raheem was a part of the scene. Most of the time, when Radio Raheem entered the shot, Lee used oblique angles, possibly to express unstability, or an unsure feeling. Radio Raheem was always shot at a low angle as well, to create a feeling of superiority, and to make him seem more powerful than those whom he was speaking with, which were shot at a high angle, and made to look weaker.
