Sal's Famous Pizzeria, for a quarter-century situated in a formerly Italian but now largely black section of Brooklyn, has a "wall of fame" featuring only Italians. After a customer demands the wall's scope be extended to include African-Americans considering the pizzeria's largely black clientele, neighborhood racial tensions escalate into violence. Spike Lee's most important film. Received Oscar nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Best Screenplay.
