There are several reasons people go to see a movie. 
Some go because of the type of movie it is, some go because of who the star is and some even go to a movie because of who wrote or directed it. 

This season, ASUI recognizes the popularity of certain directors by offering a “director’s retrospective.” 
The retrospective begins this week with writer/director Spike Lee.

Of Lee’s 15 works, two were chosen: “Bamboozled” and “Do the Right Thing,” which exemplify Lee’s artistic vision.
In 1990, “Do the Right Thing” was nominated for best original screenplay and won two awards: Chicago Film Critics Association and Los Angeles Film Critics Association (1989), for best director.

Two more directors will be highlighted as a part of ASUI’s director series: Joel Coen and Stanley Kubrick.  Two movies from each director, chosen as strong examples of the directors’ works, are a part of the program.
As with all movies offered through ASUI at the Student Union Building Borah Theater, student tickets are only $2.
