The art of the needledrop is something a lot of filmmakers try to master, but few do it with such finesse and power as Spike Lee. But he doesn't do it haphazardly... he looks into historical context, as well as artistic context. In today's video, we look into why the "Change is Gonna Come" moment from Lee's epic 'Malcolm X' is powerful not just from a filmmaking perspective, but a historical perspective, and an artistic perspective for Sam Cooke: the man behind the voice.
