From Do the Right Thing to His Latest, 25 Years of Great Spike Lee Title Sequences
For all the recent attention paid to the art of the opening title sequence—and to innovators of the form like Saul Bass, Alfred Hitchcock, and David Fincher—one name hasn’t come up enough. Over his nearly three decade career in features, Spike Lee has brought us more great opening credits sequences than perhaps any other contemporary director. His most famous title sequence, for Do the Right Thing, had its 25th anniversary the other day, and perhaps his most gorgeous title sequence yet, the Lil Buck-featuring opening credits of Da Sweet Blood of Jesus, premiered just last month.
