I finally saw Do The Right Thing for film class this past February, and I'm two thirds done watching a movie he's in with Maggie Gyllenhaal, Viola Davis, and Oscar Isaac called Won't Back Down. Those are the only other things I've seen him in outside Spider-Man. This year really does suck.

Ah, Do The Right Thing was calling out gentrification of the inner city before the Millennials learned how to sit up and sip chai tea.

RIP, Bill Nunn.
