Bet You Didn’t Know: Secrets Behind the Making of “Juice”
Who’s the director?
You might be surprised to learn that Juice director Ernest R. Dickerson was in his 40s when he made this film. Though he might have been a bit removed from the generation he was directing, Dickerson was no novice when it comes to film making. He had worked with Spike Lee since his directorial debut, “Joe’s Bed-Stuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads” and for most of his major pictures, including She’s Gotta Have It, School Daze, Do the Right Thing, Mo Better Blues, Jungle Fever and Malcolm X.
