"Summer of Sam" (1999) by Spike Lee is a hidden gem that many people have yet to discover. This film boasts a stellar cast and exceptional acting, immersing viewers in the turbulent summer of 1977 in New York City. In true vintage Spike Lee style, there's a lot going on, capturing the chaotic and vibrant atmosphere of the era. Based on the true story of the infamous Son of Sam killings, Lee masterfully recreates the NYC of the late '70s with an authenticity that only he (and perhaps Scorsese) could achieve. It's a captivating and intense movie that deserves more recognition.
