Jungle Fever
1991
***½
Director: Spike Lee
Cast: Wesley Snipes, Annabella Sciorra, Lonette McKee, Ossie Davis
Spike Lee's powerful drama examines the far-reaching effects of a cross-racial love affair. Lee's main flaw is that he gives more time to the friends and families than to the lovers, who end up feeling rather remote. But there are some fine performances and a couple of terrifically poignant scenes.
