Spike Lee, a miracle of nature,a pure talent and a paradigm for humanity !
Spike lee owns the Croisette many years now!!!
The Cannes film Festival 2021 was AMAZING because he was PERFECT ,and even though pandemic it was the best ever year in Cannes ,by far!!!!
The 74th Cannes film festival will be absolutely different without Spike Lee as the “Captain »of the best European film festival! I did not want to go to Cannes because I had 2 films there. I went more & only for Spike Lee wad in there in the festival! He was my soul priority, and I just heard my heart. My heart is full of love, adore, faith , gratefulness , inspiration , and 1.000.000 billion very deep emotions for him. I don’t analyze all now. Because I want to write for him as a phenomenon , human being ,an artist included writing, directing etc.
I was walking on Cannes Croisette street, during this film Festival 2021 when I saw this photo that he gave this amazing message to humanity :«WHAT MOVES YOU, MAKES YOU »!!!
First it was there on Croisette the basic poster of the festival!SPIKE LEE’s gotta have it! The Cannes Film Festival the image shows Lee in his iconic role as Mars Blackmon — the character from his 1986 feature debut She’s Gotta Have It, which premiered in Cannes. Lee revived the Mars character for a series of Nike commercials featuring Michael Jordan. On Mars’ hat, in place of the Nike swoosh, the poster shows Cannes’ Palme d’Or emblem. Lee looks up pensively at the palm trees that line Cannes’ main throughway, the Croisette.
Where just his eyes looking up, the 2 eagles and 2 Palms , only from this you can understand how humble he is. No ego in this huge and tremendous artist, this is the first part of what completely means really BIG.
Second this other poster of him, where he write with his pencil the amazing message to humanity «WHAT MOVES YOU, MAKES YOU », were in biggest posters than the festival’s posters, and there, infront his photo and I was thinking daily!! This what a good « punch liner »as a stand up comedian use to say. Was very interesting, that every day I saw his photo and his message, I recognized something new, that “moves me “ and “makes me” !
First of all as a spirit ,as a soul ,I realize that everything which moves me, it was my choices most of the times, but also sometimes the good luck bring situations in my life that “Moves me and make me “ what I am today!
Next day I was thinking ,,,I stop again infront of his photo, and I just I received the pure love, the power, and geniuses that came out from Spike Lee beautiful eyes, behind of his purple glasses!
Another day, I stopped and I looked for long time he’s beautiful half smile, which was like he say his Moto the same time straight to my face, and after this, he has this smile! Is a smile full of sweetness ,of dignity, of security, of kindness! So he gave to us his “moto-secret”, and he proof to us with his smile & his career that his recipe of “what moves you makes you “it’s true,and really works!!!
Another day,,, I stopped again and looked at this photo thinking about what he is offering globally in the cinema,how he awake the audience with his films and fight racism!!
Another day,,,I stopped again look at him, and I was looking his photo ,and I was thinking how deep I love this guy, how much I like him inside and outside ,his soul, his spirit, his talent, his character, his attitude, his energy,,,he’s an angel here on the poor earth, he complete and continue to doing his mission through his amazing films, and through his messages.
Another day,,, i stopped again watching his fingers , the way that he keep the pencil, the energy of his all appearance in this photo, which came out to us, that was so beautiful and changed all the atmosphere in Cannes city! Believe me Cannes had the energy because of him! The city look more charming, people were more kind! After all this time during the pandemic year, when people walking on the street and reading messages like this , of course he make their day beautiful!
But is more important WHO gives this message :SPIKE LEE!!!
It was the first time that in African-American was the CEO of the jury of Cannes film festival,!!! In 2021!!
As a white , I just felt shame that all this years no one African American was the president.
Spike Lee is not just president of a festival he’s a king ,he’s a prince , he’s a fighter, he is a doer, he’s a paradigm for the whole humanity, and he must be there, in this position 20 years ago, is never late ,but in the case of this specific man he is just fucking deserve it!!!
The filmmaker Spike Lee has become the first Black president of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France. The iconic writer and director of “She’s Gotta Have It,” “Do the Right Thing” and his recent film, “BlacKkKlansman” which highlighted the story of the Colorado Springs detective who set out to expose the Ku Klux Klan, was reportedly surprised and ecstatic about the invitation to lead the coveted, internationally acclaimed 73-year-old film festival.
“In this life I have lived, my biggest blessings have been when they arrived unexpected, when they happened out of nowhere,” said Lee in a statement last week. “When I got the call that I was offered the opportunity to be president of Cannes Jury for 2020, I was shocked, happy, surprised and proud all at the same time.”
Lee has a long history with the Cannes as his 1986 film, “She’s Gotta Have It,” won the Youth Prize for best young director. In 1989, “Do the Right Thing” was overlooked for the festival’s highest prize, Palme d’Or, losing to Steven Soderbergh’s “Sex, Lies and Videotape.” It wasn’t until 2018 that Lee would receive a prize again. “BlacKkKlansman” won Cannes’ second highest nod, the Grand Prix.
“To me the Cannes Film Festival (besides being the most important film festival in the world—no disrespect to anybody) has had a great impact on my film career,” Lee continued in his statement. “You could easily say Cannes changed the trajectory of who I became in world cinema.”
At the closing night after the Cannes Film Festival Awards, he made a VIP screening at the beach, that I have the honor to participate it, he made a film of “David Byrne’s American Utopia” a famous singer!It was a brilliant film ,directed as as a theatrical Broadway play,,so he shoot everything live on stage.Spike lee show up with a great Rainbow color suit,in the hall chakras colors!I stand up and I start to dancing on the sand , after me many people following dancing too. He left from his sit behind, then he came and he started dancing with all the people and same time were watching his film and dancing, I had the pleasure to be next to him and to take him a photo
That’s why in the whole festival I was wearing blue mask for this stupid virus, and I move it to the other side and I wrote with my red lipstick “I love Spike Lee “!
I wrote a poem for him
