It’s a Spike Lee joint
Spike Lee has traveled a long way from the days when he was a cheeky young director working on “She’s Gotta Have It,” his 1986 debut. Along with establishing himself as a diehard New York Knicks fan, Lee has made a name for himself as one of the most important filmmakers in America. Here’s a look at the box office on his five biggest films, including opening weekend, in millions:
1
Malcolm X
$48.2
$9.8, 1992
2
The Original Kings of Comedy
$38.2
$11, 2000
