contrast (screenplay contrast):
BlacKkKlansman → Do the Right Thing.

contrast (contrast):
Green Book → BlacKkKlansman.
The back-to-back Green Book original screenplay and Spike adapted screenplay wins showed the old/new academy dichotomy.

Predicts Black Klansman will rank as roughly sixth best Spike Lee movie, though it got him his Oscar.
“Black Clansman, I think, will rightly take its place as like the 6th best Spike Lee movie.”
