Does Spike Lee hate Italians?


Why did he make them so dumb and infantile in the film?

reply

..not to mention making the punk rock white guy a closeted homosexual....Spike likes to take revenge on the people who humiliated him during his life and who he's feel threatened by. After all, he is a little tiny man.

I dont think he hates all Italians. He has certainly given plenty of Italian actors work, hasn't he?
