Much like Do The Right Thing, Summer of San is a smothering film building to a boiling point. But it knows its communities less than DRRT, and it’s not as deft. From the punk scene to gays, Lee bites off a bit more than he can chew. In a surprising if delightful misstep, there’s a talking dog. Voiced by John Turturo. It’s far from a bad film, with a stellar cast and a scathing look at masculinity. But 25th Hour does that better too, leaving Summer of Sam as an odd middle child.
