'Get On the Bus'
Spike Lee's film is about a group of
black men traveling from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., for last year's Million Man March. As in the real-life march one year ago today, this convergence of
diverse black manhood is what is compelling about the film. The
bus serves as Lee's metaphor for black America. On it, the issues
of unemployment, single-parent families and a crippling nihilism
among youth travel along with the men. -- Esther Iverem
