Ed takes a double hit of Spike Lee joints in his ongoing director retrospective series!

No, not that kind of joint you hippie!

When it comes to Spike Lee flicks (or "joints" as the director labels them) you really do have to look beyond the surface to get the most out of the social commentary at play. So when The Talking Ed decided to take on not one but two of them in his ongoing "Speaking in Tongues" column we new it was going to be good ... little did we know how great!

Check out Ed's thoughts on 1994's Crooklyn over here and puff-puff-pass over to 2002's The 25th Hour right here (it stars another Ed, we figured it was worth mentioning)!

Also, if you haven't figured it out by now Ed is kind of a Talking Heads fanatic, we try not to encourage it too much though ...
