This wasn't what I expected. The son of Sam killer really is just a back drop for this story and it is an interesting look at communities in the late 70s.
My one glaring problem with this movie? The try hard version of the punk rick scene. I was too young to be around it at that time, but I think Spike Lee just took a really stereotypical view of them (an almost insulting to be honest). For a director who seems to love detail it was disappointing
